British voters go to the polls to conclude one heck of a race
It might be the most contentious and hotly fought political battle in the last three decades in England. The race between Prime Minister David Cameron’s Conservatives and Ed Miliband’s Labour Party has been ugly and extremely unpredictable. Now, we’re on the verge of a conclusion.
The platforms of each party seem to mirror the United States political structure very closely. Cameron wants to cut spending and taxes. Miliband wants to increase taxes on the wealthy. Unlike the US system, an overall majority is needed to to bring full closure to the race, which means that the parties could be vying for support from outside if a clear cut winner does not emerge.
According to Reuters, it’s very close:
Of seven opinion polls released on the last day before voting, three showed the two main parties tied. Three put the Conservatives ahead by a single percentage point, and one gave Labour a two-point lead.
