So, how do people think they're going to turn out?

My predictions:

- SNP become largest party in the Scottish Parliament - but the Lib Dems refuse to form a coalition with them.
- Labour loses control of the Welsh Assembly - Lib Dems jump into bed with the biggest party around.
- Labour wiped out in many towns in England. Tories make gains, but not as large as last time. Lib Dems also make strong gains. Greens do very well, and UKIP and BNP (unfortunately) will probably gets more seats, but I doubt they will gain control of a council.

So, what do you think will happen?

The Lib Dems I think will form a concessionary parliament with the SNP. Labour may well be reduced to just its strongholds throughout, the Tories will get the most (but this won't be mirrored in the next General Election) and the Lib Dems will do really quite well. And the Greens will make gains, can't say much for any other minor parties, maybe a councillor or two more.

No, the SNP got the most seats in Scotland. The majority would require over 50% of the seats.

At the time the guy on the BBC said that then they clarified it after that (my comp broke then).
