British prime minister- Gordon Brown has lost out in the British election even as the poll closed yesterday.
It is a paradigm shift in British politics, as the Labour party has lost its mandate to power.
Conservative Party leader David Cameron said it was "clear that the Labour government has lost its mandate to govern this country," as exit-poll predictions put his party on course to win more seats than it had for 80 years.
Exit polls suggest the Conservatives are on pace to win 305 seats -- though this would be 21 short of a majority in the 650-seat House of Commons.
It is not clear yet, what Gordon Brown next move will be.

hmm

Is not a breaking news. Everyone knew since yesterday.

And I care because? It is not like the UK is America.

No winner yet. It is a Hung. The winner has to have 326 seats in the house.
So far both labour and conservative have not gotten that.
The king maker is Nick Clegg (Lib Dem). He has to choose which party he will form government with , and he is showing interest towards the conservative. But that isnt enough, because according to the constitution the serving prime minister has to make the move of forming a government first or if he resigns, any other party can form government. So far he trying to get the support of the Scotland and wales.
So if that happens, even if Nick Clegg throws his support to David Cameron(conservative), Gondon Brown (labour) will be the winner, because he is the Prime Minister and has the advantage of forming Government first.
And if neither of the two happens, the election will be conducted again.
Also there is a possibility that Nick Clegg might still give his support to Labour.

How could have lost when a winner is yet to emerge?

True, except that Scotland and wales you refer to do not have enough members to turn the tides. Nick Clegg party remains the only king-maker, and they are considering the conservatives 1st because they won the highest number of seats, if they are unable to reach an agreement with conservatives, they will then consider labour.
