Factor in all these, er, factors, plus Mliband's less than sparkling personal standing, then it starts to look fairly odds-on that Miliband won't be the next PM.
I was responding to the 'next PM' post. Genuinelycan't see Miliband being that person. I'm with Nicola Sturgeon on this one. He's just “not Prime Minister material”.
Shades of Kinnock v Major in 1992? Miliband is so far from convincing, will be very surprised if it happens, odds on or not. Cameron to nick it on the day.

Well he would say that, wouldn't he...
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL to see the Lib Dems reduced to their traditional single-figure status having now well and truly sold most of their well-meaning liberal supporters down the river. The Greens now occupy most of the fluffy moral high ground previously occupied by the Lib Dems. Hoorah!
Really get the gut feel that Labour are going to fall away badly, sadly, purely down to the Weird Ed factor. SNP leader, Mrs Rab C Nesbitt was reported as saying, no doubt accurately, Weird Ed is "not PM material". Damn shame. Labour's traditional supporters deserve far better. Greens appear to...
Seems to me - seriously - that the Greens are now occupying much of the ground that Labour used to occupy. Labour seems to me to have lost all focus and is now reduced to mouthing the platitudes it thinks it should be mouthing. Trouble is, its so transparently insincere, that they might as well...
Sadly believe that Tories will nick it by more than a few percentage points, mainly because a) they have all the economic figures going their way at the moment and b) Ed Miliband cuts such a hugely unimposing figure. The rest are NOWHERE.
GO LARGE on the Tories, betting-wise. :thumbsup:
Much as every fibre in my being, by way of upbringing, past voting patterns and moral standing, screams VOTE LABOUR !!, won't be doing so this time around. Ed Miliband is a fraud who in no way believes the words coming out of his mouth and Caroline Lucas is a far more impressive constituency MP.
Poor old Miliband, seems to have all the luck of Neil Kinnock as a leader. This from the BBC website...
On Tuesday evening - in an apparent reference to an interview Ed Miliband's wife Justine had given to the BBC - Clarkson tweeted: "Sorry Ed. It seems I knocked your 'I'm a human' piece down...
