One can hope.

Like I can respect a party that wants to be the alternative view on Europe and being a bit more economically right-wing. I think it's right that the people who support that are properly represented. However I hate how UKIP has this underlying side of them that are completely backward socially (lack of female candidates, racist undertones, against equal rights for gays and releasing a "Christian Manifesto". I don't think that's at all relevant to UK politics and is causing people who are legitimately anti-immigration for economic reasons to also be voting for a party who think backwards but don't publicize it.

Show me dem exit polls y'all.

Lol, Clegg would do a deal with anybody. If the Lib Dems aren't in a Coalition and he's no longer Deputy PM after May 8th, then the Lib Dems will probably dump him and his political career (such as it is/was) will come to an end. UKIP-Tory-Lib Dem coalition is perfectly possible but highly unlikely.

So many people are not voting and this worries me

There were so many people around campus getting people to vote, so hopefully there should be pretty good turnout in my constituency. Should be interesting results, as it's the Sheffield Hallam constituency (Nick Clegg's) and from the sound of it it might go Labour.
It would definitely put the Lib Dems in a pretty tough spot if he lost it, and have pretty major implications for any coalitions (although I'm sure the Lib Dems will already have a contingency plan).

Yeah well he knows he's been under threat there does Clegg, however he refused to go on BBC Radio Sheffield with the other candidates in his constituency and most his time has been spent elsewhere so it's his own fault.

[MrTiki]

Personally I'd like a 3 way coalition between Labour, Lib Dems and Green, assuming it would mean you'd get influences from all parties without the extreme views of any one party. Not that it will happen.
