This is the BUCF prediction (and best case scenario) for the Glasgow East By-election and its aftermath:
SNP to win by 500-700 votes
Labour 2nd,
Tories 3rd up from 4th
Post election: BROWN OUT> MILLIBAND IN
UPDATE:
1AM – LABOUR SET TO LOSE GLASGOW EAST TO SNP

I think you have probably got that about right.
PS: I don’t want to seem pedantic, but it is a ‘by-election.’

Yes, it looks like they have lost again. It’s becoming a habit!

Labour do seem to be making a habit of making a hash of things. Now the question is what happens now… if Labour lose as it looks like they will… how do they cover up the fact they have just lost one of the safest seats in their party? Heads will roll and I think it’ll be brown who is first for the chop… bets on which cabinet member sticks the knife in first?

Wo wo wo.
Just calm down Dan, ‘what happens now’. Labour might hold onto this yet, so lets just wait and see.

Definately… its not won yet.. thats why i put “if Labour lose as it looks like they will” I am of the opinion Labour will lose, its certainly very close and even if labour manage to hold on to it it will be very tight so in my view Labour have in many ways lost this election… whether they lose the seat itself or not… to lose 13,000 votes is a bad result. I also think it will be interesting to see how the drama unfolds if Labour do lose the seat… emphasis on if.

fair poiint, I was just weary of you getting to excited and carried away Dan! Didn’t want you to be disappointed, and looks like you won’t be!!

Great prediction as it turns out!

Well done on the prediction, Dan.
