The British people today seemed shocked and stunned that events were happening around the world that were not the general election it emerged today.

Speaking from his workshop in a caravan in Dorset, ballroom dancer Mike Melling couldn't believe what he read online.

'I was flicking through all the news sites as I do each day and I came across 2 or 3 articles that were not related to the election.'

'Apparently Israel has a new government. And that Full Monty singing bloke has died. And this weeks russian satellite is to fall out of the sky.'

'I had no idea. I just assumed the world was voting today along with the British.'

'Apparently they're not registered so they can't.'

'And it would tip us over UKIPs brown person quota.'

'Rustie Lee still has dibs on it.'
