I see positives in whoever wins to be honest. The Tories are likely to be the most aggressive in getting rid of the deficit and reducing out national debt. Labour are likely to the best at protecting public services, increasing the minimum wage, and not reducing benefits to those who need it.

Personally, if it weren't for 2 of their policies, I may have voted for Lib Dem, but I can't agree with them wanting to suddenly allow 1 million or so illegal immigrants to suddenly have all the rights of people in this country legally and I don't agree with his European stance.
