I would urge caution until we see quite a few actual results

At the last two elections, the exit poll has been unerringly accurate, but this time, even the architects have their doubts, due to the emergence of UKIP and the SNP.

There should be a few other exit polls, not quite as authoritative as the main one as I think it just VI not seats figures but I’m expecting for definite something from YouGov and Populus – I’ll update this as soon I get the info.

Breaking: YouGov exit poll – CON 284 MPs, LAB 263, LIBS 31, SNP 48, UKIP 2, PLAID 3, GREEN 1 http://t.co/KyJEM6ym6U
