Hahaha. UKIP probably won't win a single seat.
Balls is the front runner for Labour leader and he is the guy if they want to go lefter and hug the unions harder assuming wrongly is logical opposition platform to the Conservatives.
**** knows who else is a front runner, they aren't awash with famous powerful potential leaders. Miliband brother is probably the favoured centrist right now I would speculate without researching it.
Clegg is ironically the most powerful lib dem leader they have had but he is going to lead the party off a cliff because they were always the opposition party with dumb policies and could never survive actual politics with power.
Fwiw Clegg did well in those debates, debating Europe is never going be a good idea which is why it dumb he did it, especially second debate on tv.
Last I looked a Conservative led coalition government with a few less lib dems was the likely outcome in the next general.
