Pen plotters are cool but have you ever tried a Textronix 4006-1?

BBC has spent more time talking to Reform than any lib dems despite them having 4 times as many seats (and Reform barely clearing the predicted SNP results)

@mcc @falken @danieldurrans LibDems are what Labour calls 'a broad church'. There are people Left of Starmer and some members entered from further Right during the coalition with the Tories. At their centre, they like freedom but believe it applies to everyone, and it comes with responsibilities. Social Liberals are what they sound like.

@NotTheLBCGuy maybe they think they secretly did build 35 hospitals or something?

There's also a new feature this election: "Camera at every count" which you can see here if you're able to access iPlayer: bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/m00

The tech behind it is really interesting, essentially it uses a system developed to take advantage of how good mobile phones & networks are these days. We have a live stream from every one of the 385 election counts in the UK & there's an internal representation of them as a mosaic of mosaics.

I wish I could share it but I can't. Sorry.

@Lazarou @Tattooed_Mummy not my intent
You must have had a different journey. Interested to know how/why

THE BBC HAVE GOT A TORY IN THE STUDIO WHO IS ALMOST CERTAIN TO LOSE HIS SEAT!

@mcc @danieldurrans "sensible choices" maybe? Realistically think there was a ton of tactical voting this time, or maybe their are seen as past their disastrous time in government now?

@danieldurrans @mcc huge Lib Dem uptick tho. Could be result of tactical voting? Not enough detected to RUK to really move needle? Con will tear itself apart anyway.

@cstross I'm eagerly waiting to see if it'll be possible to use the "From one nation tory to one tory nation" joke anywhere tomorrow.
And there are a few faces I am going to enjoy watching as they set sail down the shit filled river of oblivion.

@Lazarou @Tattooed_Mummy really? Loaded iPlayer. Went to Glastonbury. Went to the dance category. Found the dance band I wanted on the 3rd row of 4 or 5 entries, with obvious and correct label.

Sky's satellite service's app and website both seemed to have identical GUI, and yt-dlp worked flawlessly too.

The 2010 Conservative manifesto pledged to “replace the Human Rights Act with a UK Bill of Rights”. The HRA was only 12 years old at this stage.

14 years later, and despite the best efforts (ahem) of authoritarians, xenophobes and bullies like Suella Braverman and Dominic Raab, the Human Rights Act is still here and, after today, the Tories won’t be.

If there’s one thing I’ve enjoyed about the Tories, it’s their ineptitude.

@tony "finish drink if cabinet minister looses seat" might be safe? Unless staying up *all* night...
