Labour will maintain control with a strong majority. I don't expect cabinet will be cross-party; I do expect a new election within 18 months. If that's legally possible, anyway.

Do you mean that Labour will retain it's majority or get a majority through a coalition?

My current expectation is that the Conservatives are the biggest party in a hung Parliament, but I'm really not sure what sort of government that'd produce.  A very weak Lib-Lab coalition?

Who knows? A minority government couldn't be ruled out under those circumstances.
