Sky have a journalist in every count centre, I think.

Can I just say how much Sky News has improved over the last 5 years.

Before then it was all tabloid and unwatchable.

Now i'd go to Sky before BBC. It's a fine news channel now.

Looking forward to their coverage

Its interesting, i have found that too, for my news during the day

Election night though? Im not sure, i wont know until i see Bercow in action -so far they are just chatting (obviously this is a legal requirement until polls close

But it will be either BBC or BBC/SKY - John curtice and the usual very organized BBC Election nights of the past are just too hard to miss

Whiff of workout apparently in Wrexham. I mean are all the people on camera people who are regularly on camera as the female presenters in wrexham and Swindon I've never seen them if they have been.

Sky running a digital platform channel for those on mobile.
There must be 2/300 count centres.

Daily Mail are not sounding too confident about Boris Johnson ???

It's a transparant and well used ploy to get any of their readers who haven't yet voted to panic and vote for Boris.

Sky have university students at each count I think, not specifically Sky staff.

Should he really, as a journalist, be releasing that on election day!?

Only if something strange happens and they need someone who is able to use Skype on their phone to be an on the spot reporter. Otherwise they will probably just get an Amazon voucher for their time and never be heard from again.

Force of habit but I'm switching over to BBC One and will pour a drink.

Top shelf or does that depend on how the exit poll goes.

Boris Johnson price watch.

Its volatile, up and down past hour, but he's now trading below 1/3 on the betfair exchange. Keeping an eye to see which way it goes. Fingers crossed.

This is like waiting for Leaving Certificate exam results.

The UKs career hangs in the balance!

A controlled explosion in Scotland disrupting the election.

It'll be hilarious if Johnson loses his seat, some poor sod with a safe seat is going to be kicked upstairs so Bojo can stand again. Who would be the PM for that period? Rees-Mogg?

Is there any doubt about his seat at all? I think I'd get even more of a kick out of seeing this cretin unseated than Boris...
