Count night: a prediction

That it shall descend into violence. Close counts + alcohol + the prospect of having to actually look for a job? Volatile.

The Abortion&Hugs race in particular is getting vicious, with two make-me-gag candidates in particular trading accusations of malpractice.

The malpractice in question? That, in a cunning electioneering ruse, the other candidate has darn well gone and done their job! The swine! For both are current elected peeps, and both chose the election season to start doing things that they're meant to have done all year, very visibly, around halls. C'est electioneering, non? Or simply what they were originally elected to do?

And poor Grumpy Bear ThickWit, caught in the middle of the pair of them, trying to keep them from turning violent. This Hack Attacker says away with it! Wait until they're both drunk tonight and locked in a squeaky-bum tight re-count! Hack Fight!

And don't think nobody noticed the not-quite-quiet-enough sniping remarks between GenSec candidates at the UGM today.

GrumpyBear, who can see the online votes cast, says the Sabb races are all ridiculously tight, especially the GenSec race. Fisticuffs away!

Count Night: Absolutely Bollocks.

Worst results ever - its like Blue reform to control the SU (and we all remember how talented and influential that band became - actually we don't...).

More than £50k to two otherwise unemployable people - I think someone should inform Darling that we've saved him about £100/week in unemployment benefits. Still, the LSE has always worked for social causes, hasn't it?

Bit of optimism that the newbies will stand their ground and change the incumbents rather than being shouted down. They'll need all the luck they can get.
