CAN UK AVOID A "HUNG PARLIAMENT" ?

A General Election will take place early May 2015 in the UK and speculation is already rife over which parties will be winners and losers !

The Socialist Government lead by Gordon Brown and Ed. Miliband were the big losers in 2010.  They lost but knew that the UK was impoverished after their 13 years in power and they were probably glad Cameron and the Tories had to clear up the mess they left !

Britain is now buoyant again, much more so than other countries in the EU !  Do the Socialists have convincing plans to protect the 41 Labour seats they won in Scotland in 2010 ?   Or will Scottish electors massively vote for more SNP (Scottish National Party) candidates to represent them in Westminster ?

At present SNP has 6 MPs, Labour 41, Lib. Dems. 11 and the Tories 1 !  That representation will probably change radically due to the recent referendum on Scottish Independence !  The SNP is now much better organised ! 

Added to this, the Labour Party led by Ed. Miliband, seems to be scratching around for "brilliant ideas" of what can be offered to electors to tempt them to vote Labour again !

All this does not mean Cameron and the Tories are certain to win the May election with an overall majority.  There could be a badly "hung" Parliament !  The formation of another Coalition Government on "reasonable terms" could also prove to be impossible.

Today, the next election is more than 3 months away.  Something unexpected could still change everything !
