and people believe that tripe....
the clown was 'promising' more houses a couple of years ago...we
got less...
'promising' a million high tech jobs after 'employing' a million new
parasites...
'promising' to half the deficit....while planning to double the
national debt....
'promising' better pensions after destroying masses of pensions
'promising' to narrow the wealth gap...he's increased it....

it just goes on and on and on....it's both tedious and dishonest
like everything he touches...

you have to be completely out of touch with reality to believe
a word he utters....
he relies entirely on people being out of touch with reality....

people who will believe words when the opposite reality in front of their faces....
And yet, the polls continue to suggest it is Labour gaining ground at the Tories expense...

We are now not much more than a month away from a 5 May election, and even if Labour hold out to June it's only a couple of months before we go to the polls. The Tories once had a lead of 28% over Brown's Labour party, now the polls give them a few points.

If they wish to win a majority of seats they're gonna have to up their game...

I really hope it's a hung parliament
I expect the Lib Dems to prop Labour up in such circumstances unless the arithmetic ensures that only a Tory-LibDem coalition is the only workable proposition in town. I concluded several years ago that this government cannot be allowed a fourth term, I fear the Lib Dems would give them one if they're in a position to be king-maker.

That wouldn't bother me too much if the lib dems were abale to force
the concessions from them that the lib dems have in their manifesto.
Repeal of much of the illiberal laws passed in the last 10 years.

The most I'd expect them to wring out on that front is cancellation of ID cards and perhaps watering down of any new proposals to erode civil liberties. Meanwhile they are even more pro-EU than Labour and liable to expand the role of the state just as much as Labour otherwise.
