Blimey! I have just found out that Basingstoke is number 36 on Labour's target list.

I have thought it was a safe seat! It isn't. An estimated (due to coundary changes) 6.2% lead for the Conservatives.

My vote is actually going to count!

You could knock me down with a feather...

Mine is even higher up the list, and there isn't a hope in hell of Labour getting a sniff in.

On the plus side there is a chance Gordon Brown will come a-visiting, and I can spit in his good eye.

I think mine is just outside the Top 10 on the Conservatives'target list: Lib Dems hold with a majority of 812 last time.

Mind you, the Conservative candidate wins the prize for the silliest name.

Hello from up the road at no20 on Labour's list - Reading East. Tory majority of 850.

We don't seem to officially have a UKIP candidate yet, so everything to play for.

Tory target #13 here - South Lakeland.

Lib dems received 267 votes more than the tories in 2005, pretty darn close.

The boundary changes this time around will be a massive advantage for the lib dems.

Labour don't stand a chance.

If you're able to get anywhere near him rolleyes

Is it just me, but does anybody else think that ignoring unscripted questions put to/ shouted at him by members of the public make him look like an arrogant ?

Somehow I can't see the likes of Two Jags Prescott or Ken Clark walking quietly on by smile

Mine is very close between the Conservatives and the Scottish Numpty Party(1521 votes), it is the Conservatives no1 target seat in Scotland(30th in the UK) and I will be delighted if they win it.

At no 17 I give you Bristol north west. Strangely not had a visit or a letter or seen any publicity. I run a business here and am looking forward to a door stop fight with gordons attack dogs. Labour and the liberals think they own the place down here. Time a few of us changed that.

Given that both Clegg and Cameron have been seen answering such questions, it just makes him look scared.
