Why? Until a hung parliament is a reality no negotiations could or should take place. Every party is out to win based on their manifestos.
Only when there is no clear winner can any horse trading commence.
Look at it another way - How would Tory supporters feel if DC were in talks with NC
before the results were known. Then throw in to that scenario the corresponding reaction from Labour.
