The saddest pictures from the 2015 general election ;(

Thursday night was a bloodbath. In a shock result, the Conservatives swept to victory while the SNP decimated the status quo in Scotland.

Scores of Lib Dem and Labour MPs lost their seats, while Ukip, the Greens and even the Respect Party probably didn't get as many as they were hoping for.

Here are some of those who lost out:

Vince Cable

Danny Alexander

Nick Clegg

Oh, Nick

Esther McVey

Jim Murphy

Douglas Alexander

Ed Balls

Nigel Farage

Ed Miliband

It was fun while it lasted.
