looks we'll have our third GE out of 4 with a hung parliament
possibly with 3 or maybe even 4 parties at closer shares of the national vote than we've ever really seen, but massively uneven shares of MPs (one of those parties may even end up with no MPs)
FPTP is clearly broken
If LDs get to play kingmakers there could be a real prospect of getting an alternative system on the cards again.
(which would perhaps be a good opportunity to restore confidence in the political system given PR would mean everyone's vote counts.)
Won't happen though.
