Russell Brand's endorsement of Labour and Mr Miliband in recent weeks failed to pay off and on Friday he posted another video on his 'The Trews' YouTube channel.

Brand said he had come to realise that "you can't influence the outcome of an election".

"We're going to have no shortage of meanness over the next five years. There's going to be meanness to the disabled, meanness to immigrants, meanness to the poor.

"So all we've got left is to be compassionate to each other," he said.

Charlotte Church, a strong Labour supporter, wrote: "The politics of fear is the politics of control and we've given the reigns to the bogey men."

Harry Potter creator JK Rowling tweeted: "I can't be the only person currently obsessing over what's going through David Miliband's head, can I?"

Katie Hopkins threatened to leave the country if Ed Miliband became prime minister. As results came in she revealed that she was feeling "smug" and would be going nowhere.

"I will be staying in the UK and intend to become @David_Cameron new Fat Tsar. He is not aware of this yet," she tweeted.

Kirstie Allsop wrote on Thursday: "Vote how u want to, but not because u believe the NHS is safer with Labour. The NHS needs a sound economy and Ed thinks money grows on trees."

Writer and director Armando Iannucci tweeted: "I hope parties opposing austerity don't start crying and arguing but keep opposing. Tories got 34.5%: it's not a mandate for more austerity."

Actor Hugh Grant will have been sad to see Danny Alexander's defeat to the SNP in Inverness.

The Notting Hill star tweeted last week: "Dear People of Inverness (incl my friends and relations), I know Danny Alexander and think you're very lucky to have him. Just an opinion. X"
