Title: Noooooo!
Post by: Nickbat on 30 March 2010, 23:58:24
"Gordon Brown could continue as Prime Minister for weeks even if he loses the election, under Whitehall proposals to prevent a run on the pound in the event of a hung parliament."

Whatever gives you that idea?

He's my drinking buddy. OK, he lies like a flatfish, throws Nokias at me when he gets stressed, never buys a round, gurns embarrassingly and thinks he's always right even when he isn't...but, hey, no-one's perfect!  ;)

THEN (2005 General Election Result)

Labour 35.3%
Conservative 32.3%
Liberal Democrats 22.1%


NOW (based on independent poll of polls) http://www.ukpollingreport.co.uk/blog/uk-polling-report-average

Labour 26%-34%
Conservative 35%-40%
Liberal Democrats 15%-21%

based on the latest polls.......

worst case scenario for Labour and best case scenario for Conservative would result in a 21-25 seat majority Conservative Government

worst case scenario for Conservative and best case for Labour would result in a Labour majority of 6 seats  :o

my guess would be we're somewhere the two extremes but looking at it in more detail, the tories at best are sitting on 40% if that drops even 1% to a 39% share of the vote, we're looking at a hung parliament

you can have a play around with the swingometer here
