Above is the Guy News poll of polls taken from tonight’s final round of polls. Below is where we started the campaign. The big story is clear, the LibDems have gained massively from the TV debates taking 6% from the Tories and 4% from Labour.
The political markets currently rate the chances of a hung parliament at 59%. Punters are predicting a high turnout in the 70 to 75% range…
Gordon is apparently pleading with voters to come home to Labour…
All that jostling for TV face time and visiting of far-flung candidates by Ed Balls, David Miliband and Harriet Harman is of course nothing to do with the upcoming election, it is all about the election after that – the Labour leadership election.
Guido reckons Gordon will be gone sooner rather than later, and one way or another he won’t be facing Cameron at the next PMQs. Labour will turn on itself, and turn on Gordon, Charlie Whelan and Ed Balls. The likes of Yvette Cooper, Chris Bryant, Iain Austin and Tom Watson will get some of the collateral blame for foisting Gordon on the party. They in turn will blame Mandelson and Campbell for the campaign strategy, the Blairites will pointed to for their many coup attempts and high profile corrupt consultancy deals, cashing in like Tony himself. This will last for ever. Gordon will brood with a seething rage which will make Heath look positively jolly in comparison.
The bookies currently are making Miliband favourite, Harman second favourite, Darling is seen as a safe pair of hands caretaker, Balls (if he survives) and Johnson are in the running. Many wonder if Johnson is up for it. Harman could be acting leader on Saturday many think, they assume the she will be a caretaker leader like Margaret Beckett. Guido hears that they should not be so sure…

“The basis of Lockean thought is his theory of the Contract of Government, under which all political power is a trust for the benefit of the people. His thinking underpins our ideas of national identity and society. Please don’t let those who seek to ban our beauty win. Vote to save Page 3!”

Norman Tebbit has a humble brag:
“We Maastricht rebels were derided and abused for opposing the single currency by the wise, clever, Guardianista soft centre left establishment from whom we now hear so little on the matter.”
Mr Bryant and Mr Watson managing to make the whole hacking affair look like a farce – the more they moan the less I care about the whole subject! So partisan it beggars belief at all costs. They cannot rise above it ! If I was to call the PM a ‘liar’ I would want to be VERY sure.
