How long would the Tories have lasted in power if the Lib Dems never formed a coalition with them

Assume the Lib Dems never form a coalition with them and Tories govern as a minorty government how long would they have lasted power. Imo I think the Cameron government probably falls in 2012/13 and Labour probably takes a majority and I think they still would be in power to this day.


Lib Dems going into coalition may have saved the Tories from another long spell in the wilderness as going into that coalition tanked the Lib Dems popularity meaning they really couldnt vote for an early election and by 2015 the economy recovered enough for Cameron to win.

They’ll be a German style Grand Coalition which would fall apart with new elections called. A Grand Coalition hasn’t been formed other than in times of war. It has never happened after a General Election

I mean wouldn’t the Tories just govern as a minorty government  ala Canada 2004-2011 and 2019-2021 rather than a coalition one
