After Eds performance last night he will almost certainly be out of a job in 6 weeks, so who do you think should be next Labour leader??

As explained before, although I have voted Conservative in the past, I have not for quite some time - many elections in fact.

My main beef is the intellectual snobbery displayed by many (but not all) of those on the left towards those on the right. I'm happy to keep poking fun at them. The reactions of several well-known posters is an absolute delight to behold.

Do you not have some sympathy/understanding given the constant provocation right to left?

But he won't. Despite his feeble performance, he's more likely to be PM in 6 weeks than anything else.

The most recent polling data would disagree. image.jpg

Interesting [MENTION=13022]Brighton4Cambridge3[/MENTION]. I saw a similar graph 3 weeks ago and the chance of Labour being involved was running about 70% or something.

Easily time for a few percentage point swings either way. A horrible gaff from any of the leaders or their senior colleagues could change the landscape dramatically

Yep. Imagine what would happen if you were caught on camera fudging a receipt for your own benefit at a party event. Or being a massive racist.

I always find these polls quite meaningless, if you add in the "haven't got a clue who I'm going to vote for" voters like myself then you might as well just pick numbers from a hat.

As for Ed, I really hope he isn't standing in front of number 10 with his family in 6 weeks time.

I agree to a point, what it does show however is that those undecided voters and those who don't normally bother to vote could actually make a difference to who is standing in front of Number 10, at least more than is historically the case

That will just about sum our country up if that doughnut gets elected by the Great British public.

Lets face it the margins on the polls are so narrow and the change in the political landscape so huge from even the last election that nothing can be ruled out. Personally I think the election will be decided by how those voters who say they're voting UKIP and Green actually vote on the day.

What are you on about? Even Tory supporting hacks are saying Ed did very well last night

Agree with that.

I still think it will come down to how many Tory voters vote UKIP this time round. In Lab/Con marginals this will IMO be decisive.

Some Labour voters will obviously vote UKIP too, and some Labour voters will vote Green, but IMO the affect won't be as great.

Too close to call.
