| [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Turns ait I'm pretty in line with the Green Party. At least they're a solid enough protest vote which doesn't soil me in with the racist loons. I expect they'll probably do alright out of disaffected Lib Demmers following Clegg's utter betrayal since sidling up to the Tories, too. Prediction: Another coalition, no outright majority (quite an obvious one with the rise of the KIP splitting everyone's previously safe seats). Prediction: Labour to sneak in, in spite of Miliband. |

| Looks like the greens have successfully crowdfunded enough dollar to fund a candidate for each constituency in Plymouth. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] |

| How will they react to the news that enough bankers bonuses have been paid since the crash to cover the deficit caused by them? #allinittogether How will they help all the working people having to turn to food banks to put food on the table? Will they ever make the road to my my house fit for purpose? Will any of them deliver sustainable transport to the SW all year round or shall we spunk money we haven't got of new roads in south east, north west and HS2? Will any of them back an actual living wage or shall we just continue with the massive divide in wealth and poverty, Britain is a shit or bust economy now, God help you if you don't get out of the blocks quickly enough because the welfare state won't. |

| Many commentators are suggesting that it could be another coalition Government. If so, can we have a ''Labour-Lib Dem'' coalition, rather than a ''Tory-and whoever'' coalition. I do not think i could stomach another five years of David Cameron [and his fag, George Osborne] ruling the roost. Action Man Boris Johnson could also be in there too - that would be amusing to say the least. There are more savage cuts to come in the next few years [they say that we have only had 40% of cuts so far] so what will the voting public go for ?. Prime Minister's Questions: Leaders clash over spending cutsEd Miliband and David Cameron have traded blows on the economy in the last Prime Minister's Questions of 2014.
The Labour leader challenged the PM over cuts in public spending, saying the Conservatives wanted to take Britain back to the 1930s.
Mr Cameron said spending as a share of income was "roughly the same" as it was under Labour in 1999.[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]How come the UK economy is doing ok, when the European economy and other economies elsewhere for that matter, are not. I am aware of these so called ''zero hours contracts'' and the increasing number of ''part-time jobs'' that are aiding the growth, but surely at some point these will fizzle out, which may [or will] see the economic growth begin to fall away.. Is the UK likely to see its economy contract at some point in the future if the European economy and other economies elsewhere continue to stagnate. Worrying trends for the UK economyThe British economy is recovering with an eye-catching improvement in GDP growth. But the fine print in the forecasts from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) point to worrying trends in what's driving that growth.

PLYMOUTH’S unemployment total continues to drop – falling 26 per cent in a year.Latest figures from Jobcentre Plus reveal just 3,418 people claimed Jobseeker’s Allowance last month, compared to 4,622 in November 2013.
The new figure is two per cent lower than the 3,484 claimants recorded in October, as the downward trend continues.[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] |

There will be no LabDim coalition, the Dims will be wiped out and unless can actually come up with policies on the deficit and immigration Labour will continue to slide in the polls, Ipsos Mori have them at 29%, with the SNP smashing in their back door there is next to no chance of them being the largest party. LabSNP would just be too West Lothian to survive long. Interesting polling from Moor View with the Kip just a gnats nudger behind the Labs, good to see you chaps catching up with the rest of the country. |

| Lib Dems will hold on to around 25 MPs because of strong local support.
Wouldn't be especially surprised to see Clegg lose his seat though |

| Most of the population will vote for their usual choice because that is what they and their parents did, a lot of Tory voters do so in the mistaken belief they are the middle classes. |
