Leaders on the Brink

Could Nick Clegg lose his seat at the next general election?

The constituency of Sheffield Hallam is unusual in having had five -specific opinion polls conducted between 2010 and 2015. Each of these polls have suggested significant changes in the seat's electoral composition since the 2010 general election.

A lot of people failed to vote at the last election turning up late and missing the 10:00PM deadline due to congestion. Voters at the Ranmoor polling station were subjected to long queues and the returning officer has vowed this will not happen again.

On average across all five opinion polls, Labour has a lead over the Lib Dems of 4.6% and the substantial 15,284 majority enjoyed by Nick Clegg may be a thing of the past.

Nigel Farage, yet to win a seat in the HofP contesting Thanet South is facing candidates such as Al-Zebabist Nation of OOOG and the Free United Kingdom Party, with candidate The Pub Landlord (TV celebrity Al Murray).
