Well, the radio prog has been on the go for 45 minutes so far, with lots
of valuable discussion, interviews with Nigel Farage and Tim Montgomerie,
emails and 'phone calls -- and hours to go before the traditional
broadcasters bother. Results are coming in from other EU countries.
So far, the main broadcasters and national print media are completely
ignoring this, keeping to the Gordon Brown leadership as their only
political story.
By the time they bother, it'll all be over, including my own (to be
dynamically-updated as UK results come in) 'blog post.

Actually, exit polls -- very interesting they are, too!
