The Labour Party are more favourable to a constitutional reform than the conservatives

If the Queen's Councillors have worked these past weeks with the leaders of the British political parties that the sovereign is not in a position to have to choose the next Prime Minister and leaves make the verdict of the ballot box, the Liberal Democrats could turn to find the next night in the position of King makers. If said Parliament "suspended", i.e. without party with the majority of the 650 seats in the House of Commons, the choice of Nick Clegg, leader Lib Dems, whose performance in the first debate televised between leaders organized in Great Britain, turned the election campaign, could determine who will be Prime Minister. To increase its number of seats, now 62, he could also promote a change in the electoral system of the country in the medium term and put an end to the two-party system prevailed up to now in Britain.

Nothing is less sure, because two polls of the past few days pointed a slowdown of the dynamics of the party, with labour ironing place second on the criterion of the number of intentions to vote at the national level. But the training at the centre of the British political spectrum carries the hopes of those who want the repeal of the SMP system in a turn and a more proportional system. For them, the political composition of the country would be better respected, the two major parties today with an overwhelming majority of seats in the House of Commons, while their weight in the electorate passed more 95 after the second world war a little more than 60 today.

The Labour Party are more favourable to a constitutional reform than the conservatives. The right fears that an alliance of centre-left between the Liberals-demo-crates and labour out them of power for a long time. Today, the tories are disadvantaged by the redistricting, which explains that they should have a lead of nearly 10 points in national voting intentions to reclaim 117 additional seats and obtain the majority at Westminster. To correct these distortions, the right proposes to redefine the electoral borders through its project to reduce by 10 the number of MPs at Westminster, a chapter of its programme of reduction of the train of life of the administration.

A not so obvious alliance

However, the alliance of the Lib Dems with the Labour Party is not as natural as could be expected. Even if more than 50 of the supporters of the formation of Nick Clegg lean to the left, against about 30 to the right, the party advocates policies that appeal both to environmentalists to those wishing less State in their lives. These days, Nick Clegg warned not to want to negotiate with Gordon Brown, a position that undermines its bargaining power after the results, according to some commentators. And he said that a reform of the electoral system was not a "precondition" for working with the conservatives from David Cameron.

The debate on the end of the two-party system may be reduced to silence tomorrow, even if suspended Parliament, if the Conservatives felt that their advance seating was sufficient to govern and an alliance of the Lib Dems with the labour party did not have enough seats or appeared illegitimate.
