Not sure if we have a topic yet for this Election so thought I would start one. Mods please rename/delete if you think it's too early to be chucking election talking into one topic.
A
new poll has been released suggesting a Hung Parliament, which seems to be a common view amongst the pollsters.

If the result was reflected at the ballot box, it would leave David Cameron six seats short of an overall majority. The Conservatives would have 320 seats, Labour 240, the Liberal Democrats 58 and other parties 14, the polling company calculated.

Not sure if the polling company has a bias for their selection but it does seem a common theme.
Does anyone else think it's actually surprising that the election looks like it will be close with the anger directed at Labour? Do you think this is a likely result or will they scrape a minority? Why haven't the Tories consolidated their position?
