Cameron's clean sweep

UK Election results, World Fairtrade Day, Russia's Victory Parade, the floating market on the Mekong

No change at Number 10. David and Sam can look forward to another four years.

That means no coalition will be necessary, and although the majority is slim, it's enough to give Cameron a far more comfortable position than he has had for the last four years.

Analysts Melanie Sully and Craig McAngus give their opinions on the results and their importance.
