How likely is it that a strong showing by the Liberal Demorats will deny Labour an outright majority, and there'll be a Liberal/Labour coalition?

I think Kennedy said something to the point of "no alliances".

Then what happens then? A new election?

The LibDems are only competative against Labour in a handful of seats. And won't win in most of those. So no.

What are the odds that a combination of weak Labour and strong every other party showing results in no one getting a majority of the seats? And if Labour and the Liberals get together over 50%, they wouldn't form a coalition?

How would you rate the main 3 parties: Labour, Conservative, and the Liberals in terms of the political compass? I've seen some sites that indicate almost no difference between Labour and Conservatives, and that the Liberals are definitely more liberal, but are still right of center.
