Down to the wire: UK election poll shows main parties neck-and-neck

  • 9 years ago
We are down to the wire with Britain set to elect a new government on Thursday. A Financial Times poll shows the Conservatives and Labour neck-and-neck at 34 percent. This suggests that neither Prime Minister David Cameron or his Labour opponent, Ed Miliband, will win an outright majority. If this is the case, there will be much horsetrading as the leading candidate seeks to form a coalition. It also means Nicola Sturgeon, the head of the Scottish National Party, will likely become a kingmaker.
