It's going to be a difficult one to call as the opinion polls are all over the place. I also remember how wrong they were in the 1992 election.
My feeling is that turnout may dip below 60% and this would possibly lead to a Conservative majority of about 30-40. Mainly because the Conservatives are better at getting their core vote out than Labour are. Whilst a hung parliament is a possibility the boundary changes from the last election appear to favour the Conservatives in a large number of the marginal constituencies.
I can also see a few members of the cabinet loosing their seats as well.

right now here in paisley we're being told council tax will freeze but council housing rent will go up year on year till 1015.
What a rip off, I just wish we the people would all stop voting on mass and take the day off work as a point of protest.........
The banks get rich and the poor pay for their free lunch
So there will be allot more crap before and after the election no matter who wins...
We the people are already the losers.

I am hopeful that the voters will realise that the main parties have not their interest at heart and that the small parties like UKIP will take a large share of the vote. Then hopefully we can throw the EU into touch, send all the unwanted Europeans home, the illegals back to France and close the borders. However I suspect the I vote for ..... because my dad did will win our and we will have more of the same, whether Labour or Tory.

Crikey. A Lab / Lib coalition? That would really be the lunatics running the asylum wouldnt it. Labour are bad enough on their own without going even further to the left.
Conservatives should win it by a smaller margin than Labour currently have due to the electoral bounaries

All three are the same servants of their EU masters, so if the British people vote for any of the main three, Well they are voting for the Death of their country and their freedom as British people. The only way to save Britain now is to vote out side of the main three. because once Turkey is voted into the EU...only a year or so away, Britain will be over run with Islam. Britain will then be, the Islamic island of Europe, and god help our children..We realy do have to use our vote to get out of the EU and get control of our borders back into the hands of the British.

I'll buck the trend and go for Labour, with Brown making the biggest comeback in political history. The Conservative are all over the place with their tax policies, and Cameron's not going to be able to keep fooling them much longer. They also have the problem of having that half wit Osbourne dealing with their economic policies. The guys clueless, and more and more people are becoming aware of this fact. It also looks like he's going to be forced to pay back expenses money that he ripped us off for. I wonder if "Hard Man Dave" has the nerve to get rid of him, or is he only able to get away with that with backbenchers.

How the hell should we know? We live in the United States of America, and are rather busy right now with the Communist, radical revolutionary that some dumbasses put into our White House.
Excuse us if we are not up on whats going on in the U.K.
