Labour Suffers Massive Losses In UK Elections

Just as America is stepping forward, the UK is stepping backwards.
"The Conservative Party is on course for sweeping gains across England as the local election results point towards meltdown for Labour.

Although most of the county councils have yet to declare, early results show the Conservatives taking dozens of seats from Labour and seizing control of two county councils in the Liberal Democrats’ stronghold in the South West."
All those Labour Ministers resigning amid scandals right before elections did not help. PM Gordon Brown must be feeling quite lonely about now.

Interesting to see a country go through elections that don't take 2 years of campaigning like in America.
