The General Election is set to take place tomorrow and almost every newspaper and news channel in the land seems to have carried out a poll of some sort. At present The Sun has The Conservatives leading with 35 per cent, Labour on 30 per cent, and the Lib Dems trailing behind with 24 per cent. But the only poll that the party leaders really need to take notice of is Speed’s office poll.
The result of our internal staff poll suggest that the Conservatives will enjoy a landslide victory with 44 per cent of the vote. The Liberal Democrats are put in second place with 36 per cent and the Labour party is placed in third position with just 12 per cent.
The results of the poll also revealed that 4 per cent of Speed staff would be voting for independent candidates. Another 4 per cent said that they intended to vote for John Brown, despite him not running for a parliamentary seat.
The results are based on a turnout of 67.57 per cent, which is markedly higher than the turnout at the 2005 General Election when just 61.3 per cent of people bothered to vote.
Who would you like to see in 10 Downing Street?
