The UK has never faced such a fascinating General Election than the forthcoming one on 6 May.  The list of uncertain factors is long.  For example the effects of:

  • the size of the turnout
  • tactical voting
  • the influence of Scottish and Welsh nationalists
  • achieving or preventing a hung parliament on the Liberal Democrat vote
  • social networking, email and text-messaging
  • the Brown-Cameron-Clegg TV debates, and
  • events (as Harold MacMillan said)
