A month before the general election in Great Britain, experts are speculating about the possible outcome of the most uncertain vote in decades, and polls confirm that the leading candidates - the ruling Conservatives of Prime Minister David Cameron and the opposition Labor led by Ed Miliband - remain "side by side".
According to a survey whose results were published by the BBC, the center-right Conservative Party enjoys the favor of 34 percent of Britons, while 33 percent of respondents plan to vote for the center-left Labor party, reports AFP.
These results, which have not changed for months, indicate that neither of these two parties will be able to form a government on their own, the French agency says, and reminds that the Conservatives and Labor have dominated British politics since the 1920s, but that the two-party system is falling apart.
As for the ratings of other parties, the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) led by Nigel Farridge, which wants Britain to leave the EU, enjoys the trust of 15 percent of voters, while five percent of respondents intend to vote for the Greens.
In Scotland, the Scottish National Party (SNP), which is seeking independence from Britain, has the prospect of replacing Labor as the largest party.
AFP reminds that the composition of the new government will be determined by the number of seats won by each of the parties in the Lower House, and in order to form a government, it is necessary for the party to win more than half of the local electoral districts, of which there are a total of 650, so at least 326.
According to the results of the survey published by "The Guardian", the Conservatives will win 276 seats, and the Labor Party six less, while the SNP would get 50 seats.
The younger partners in the current ruling coalition, the Liberal Democrats, would get 28 seats, which is half as much as they have now, and UKIP four, according to the results of the same survey.
Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg, leader of the Liberal Democrats, could be among those to lose his seat and career, according to the results of a survey organized in his constituency by wealthy former Conservative Michael Ashcroft.
In any case, whoever prevails - the Conservatives or Labour, will have to unite with one or more smaller parties in order to gain enough seats to be able to govern, and this certainly points to a close race with an uncertain outcome, concludes Gideon Skinner of the research institute Ipsos.
