    Usually I'm excited to be awake for election/ref results. This time I just have a horrible feeling of despair.

    Conservative candidate for Glasgow North doesn't live in the constituency. Edinburgh instead. Another reason to vote for anyone else.

    Having a cat and working from home is great - Tux makes sure I never leave my desk, although he'll have to move eventually so I can vote.

    No, there doesn't. Reducing freedoms is not a solution, and it won't work. You cannot regulate the internet like that.

    Ladies and gentlemen - here's proof that you cannot trust a word Theresa May says.

    In 2015 Theresa May accused the Police Federation of scaremongering for saying spending reductions would mean we have to adopt paramilitary style of policing.
