Fraser Nelson: "I suspect we’re a few hours away from Ed Miliband’s resignation. He never held the confidence of his party, and they’ll probably come for him unless he quits by lunchtime. He looks set to win 20 fewer seats that Gordon Brown managed to after a recession and 13 years in power, which is a pretty clear failure."

Please be true

A just result for the lib dems, Cleggs core lib dem group don't deserve to be wiped out.

Looks like 3 leaders could be out by the end of the day, Clegg, Miliband, Farage

He doesn't need them, he looks to have a majority government on his own, if not he has a couple of northern Irish parties to back him up.

Pretty much a given. At least for Ed Miliband, and Nick Clegg.

Traditionally the leaders of third parties are able to remain leaders, both due to a lack of MPs in general to contest, such low public profile for the alternatives that it wouldn't make sense and because nobody really expected them to win. However I think in this case the parties will agree that Farage and Clegg cocked it up.
