Did you tune in to the Election Count on BBC, ITV and Sky News at 10pm last night? They forecast from their exit polls a result of Conservatives 305 Labour 255 LibDems 59, and the poll was immediately rubbished by everyone as being completely wide of the mark based on the so called experts' experience of the campaign.

The final ACTUAL figures show Conservatives 306 Labour 258 LibDems 57.

I think the exit pollsters are owed a drink!
