Election! Independence! Sticky buns!

I am up well past my bedtime watching the Scottish election results trickle in. (The polls closed at 10pm, and three and a half hours later there are three seats declared - what gives?)

If I was less tired I might write about left-wing nationalist movements in Scotland and Quebec - Scottish National Party voters are not necessarily pro-independence, much like the Bloc voters that turned against their party in both referendums. But in sleep-deprived revision haze I am mostly noticing the BBC's whimsical election coverage.

Nevermind the live election blog - those are par for the course now - but a gallery of campaign food? Care for a life-sized polysterene cut-out of one of the party leaders? Honestly, isn't this election exciting enough?
