11 Predictions for 2010
David Cameron will be Prime Minister, although he may need a second election late in the year to stay that way. I think he’ll win a wafer thin majority and will find governing very difficult indeed. When he puts the hunting ban up for a free vote and it somehow gets repealed all hell will break loose, as the Tories immediately revert to type. He’ll discuss behind closed doors with...
