Here's a few results from the London election so far - in the 'Weavers Ward' Respect got about 20% of the votes cast, which isn't bad at all.

so Galloway's just announced that he got 66000 votes - that's certainly not anywhere close to the 5% required... it will be interesting to see the amount that the SWP got.

Boris's live acceptance speech is nauseating. What a prat.

I'm really surprised that Londoners voted him in. He's a nice enough buffoon, but I'd not want him in charge of my town. Come to think of it, I can't think of the name of the person who runs Glasgow... haha

It seems that The Left List got 16000 votes in the Assembly election - I hope that shuts up some of the louder blogger types...
