What are everyone's views on the possible effect of Greece's financial crisis on this election?

It's probably negative for the Liberal Democrats who are not regarded as strong on the economics and are pro Euro. The stronger the issues of the econmany and Europe are in the election then the weaker the Liberal Democrats will do in my view (despite the fact there were calling the global recession earlier than any of the others).

It's harder to work out who would benefit between the Conservatives and Labour. First of all the British economy never descending into the crisis Greece has and, although Labour are at fault for not saving money in order to deal with the level of debt incurred fighting the recession, they were successful in bringing the country out of recession. Their policies worked. Maybe the public will be scared by the current situation, Osborne is unproven as Chancellor, and choose Labour.

However maybe they will decide that drastic cuts need to made to the budget in order to cut our debt and make sure we don't go down the same path as Greece?
