Lib Dems could get a majority in people but, there is no chance in seats.

The only way they will get in is with Brown in a coalition. (Likely)

thats because of the electoral system, which needs to change to PR imo.

As far as I can see that wouldn't benefit labour. So why would they agree to it? They would be rock bottom if it was based on votes and not seats...

Lib Dems and Labour have called for it, Conservatives have rejected the idea according to the manifestos.

They pretty much won everywhere. Doesn't mean they like it.

As far as i know, they're neutral-ish, slightly con leaning, but not much.

owned by News Corp aint they? so I would imagine they at least partially favour the Tories.

the only left wing newspapers in the UK are the Guardian and the Independent.
