Mr Cameron hailed the "sweetest victory" as his party secured the 323 seats needed to form a government without needing to go into coalition. Ed Miliband, the Labour leader. Ed Balls, the Shadow Chancellor was the biggest scalp of the night, losing his Leeds seat to the Tories. --The Daily Telegraph, 8 May 2015https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_cartoon-ed-davey.jpg
