The Election
The Conservative Party will win with a small working majority.
The Liberal Democrats will do better than everyone expects or polls suggest.
Smaller parties - the SNP, Plaid Cymru, the Greens, UKIP will do well.
Large numbers of the electorate, almost 50%, will not cast their vote.
The fact is that the majority of people are disillusioned with all politicians and in particular those of the major parties, therefore they will abstain from voting or will cast a protest vote, benefiting independents and smaller parties.
There will be change but not major change. Whether Britain will have a fairer society remains to be seen.
"The Nineteenth century saw a great Springtime of Nations as the revolutions of 1848 saw new countries created the length and breadth of Europe. In our world today we are now seeing our own Spring Awakening with people and cultures that have long been dormant and subdued asserting their right to exist, their right to dream." Adam Price MP
