Labour 325 Seats
Conservate 215
Lib Dems 67

Labour with a majority of 70-80 seats. Not a disaster, but it'll sink Blair's battleship. Expect a Brown premiership within a year to eighteen months.

You'll see Lib Dem voting eating away at the labour rather than the tory vote.

Never understood the liberal voter myself.

Lab 358
Con 216
Lib 43
Other 29

LDs 113
Cons 188
Lab 324

Lib-Dems: 111
Con-Tors: 222
New-Lab: 333

I know there's only 646 seats, but 666 seats sounds so much cooler! :cheers:

Labour 328
Conservatives 209
Lib Dem 95
Others 19

Labour- 332
Conservatives- 207
Lib Dem- 77
Other- 30

Labour will win, but with a reduced majority.

The Tory party will continue to whither and die.

The Lib Dems will pick up a few more seats, but won't become the main 'opposition' just yet.

Labour will win, but with a reduced majority.




That's my main aim of this election, is to cut the Labour Majority which is just too big and not healthy for our democracy.

I like Tony Blair and Gordon Brown and would like to continue to see them run things, just be more answerable to Parliament and the only way that is going to happen if they have less Labour MP's in there.

My prediction:

Labour- 359
Conservatives- 162
Lib Dem- 95
Other- 30

that'd be alright.

I want LibDem to be the solid part of the majority and thus force proportional representation. You'd have BM and NF holding seats in the HoC though.

I don't think it's a problem to have micority parties holding seats, even far right ones like the NF. Let's face it, they wouldn't have any power, but if, say, 2% of the population wanted them in power, then surely they should get 2% of the seats. It's not a democracy if you pick and choose what parties should be allowed to sit in the house.

Thats called democracy, you can't scrap the idea of a particular voting system you like solely because it produces results your not happy with.

Agreed. So long as there's more Lib Dems than tories :D

Whats Kilroy-Silk up to these days?

Whats Kilroy-Silk up to these days?
Whilst not up his own arse, he's leader of his new party, Veritas.

An Anti-European Party using a title in a Language that was once used right across Europe, you have little idea of irony Mr Kilroy-Silk.

My highly educated guess...

Labour 360
Conservative 200
Liberal Democrats 60
SNP and PC 8
Northern Irish Parties 18

That would give Labour a majority of 74.

Don't care as long as the tories don't win. I thin Labour will still maintain around 375 seats, maybe more.

Maybe his sense of irony is more sharply developed than we give him credit for. He's still utterly wrong though.

First Guess:

Labour: 359
Conservative and Unionist Party: 188
Liberal Democrats: 70
Others: 28
{DUP: 8}
{UUP: 5}
{SF:5}
{SNP: 4}
{Plaid Cymru: 4}

Independents: 2

If anyone beats me, then award youself a constituency of your choice.

Not bad those Lost Boy, although I think the DUP will wipe the floor with the UUP.

The one I was interested in was the Respect seat, which consituency do you think they will win in. I like George Galloway although I disagree with him on most things, I like the passion he brings to debates and he's a great speaker, so in a way, I think it would be great if they won a seat (although I would never vote for them in a million years).

Zim,

I agree, I might have been too generous to the UUP, I fully expect the DUP to really establish themselves as the new voice of unionism, - just as Sinn Fein will further entrench their position as the party of Irish Nationalism in Northern Ireland - although the recent scandal could harm their more respectable middle class vote, I don't expect it to hurt their core vote at all. I think though the UUP which used to be the "Official Unionist Party" will die a slow not a spectacular death.

Benthal Green and Bow - This is where George Galloway has chosen to stand for Respect, they also have a councillor here, and topped the poll in the Summer European Elections.
