19. I think this may refer to Evan Harris,
He was my MP, and I'm pretty upset. He was a LibDem, but to the left of most Labourites and was pro-science, pro-education, one of the strongest champions of the NHS, anti-war, anti-fundie, and a very good local MP. He lost to a Tory by 176 votes.

At least the Tories haven't got an overall majority, and the BNP got 14% of the vote in a seat that they thought they might win. So it's bad here but not the worst I suppose.

Clegg was re-elected in his seat.
