The election count was an excellent occasion and I had an keen group of supporters. We made our customary loud entrance to the counting hall and this was covered by The Telegraph among others.
At the end of the night at about 5.30am I was asked very politely if I wouldn’t mind standing at the very end of the stage for the declaration, but I forgot. Poor Ed Milliband’s party were having a rotten night and he looked quite glum, I on the other night was extremely pleased with my 162 votes!
