So the Conservative’s with 3.4% more support than Labour would get 15 seats less than Labour.

@David Bird

Common sense policies? Even if you decide to ignore their openly racist past, the BNP’s policies are extremely right-wing (in the social sense). No ‘sensible’ party would reintroduce capital punishment, and if they’re so ‘non-racist’ and ‘truthful’ how come they have only fairly recently allowed non-white people to join the party as a result of outside force?

I hope this is right. Though I suppose an eventually Tory victory is inevitable.

BNP have been discriminated against throughout this campaign ,BBC mainly responsible .Had they had a fair hearing then i could see them in the running along with the main three .BNP are the truth party and the only party with common sense policies nothing to do with racism how can so called educated people be duped into the racism slur thinking.

I’ve enjoyed your forecasts from the US and I’ll be watching the BBC online tonight to see how close you hit it.

I agree with the comments above. In Yorkshire there has been a huge rise in popularity/support for the BNP. I cover most of the North Easterly cities during a week, and have found through Election discussions with clients, a firm North/South divide, especially since the expenses scandal. Many are questioning the unwritten right of learned toffs to run the country. I find myself having to agree, I have no affinity with these Etonion Fops either, they do not represent the masses, politics is just a continuation of their University activities, campus papers etc. The BNP are the working class man, and will suprise many with the support they receive…will the wealthy, educated, southerners lobby to take the vote away from the uneducated northerner, then?

I think the country is in for a big shock!, don’t underestimate the BNP party, They gained 1,000,000 voters in the Euro Election.
I think that immigration, housing, jobs are a big issue to the ordinary working class family.
I have noticed a lot of land owners also swinging to the UKIP Party.

Cameron isn’t false, if anything, he’s the most honest out of the lot of them. Brown lies regularly and on national television, and Clegg can’t remember the last thing he said.
Cameron is the only choice that will fix the country. Any other choice will just ruin us, and it’s a shame some people can’t think beyond the prejudice of a well spoken well educated individual.
