The General Election is nearly upon us, we know the odds for the whole country \u2013 but what do the local elections tell us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
OddsMonkey have looked at the ten most marginal seats across the country to see whether than can tell us anything\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Interestingly, six of the ten most marginals are predicted to swap hands by Bookmakers, with the other four holding with the current incumbent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Conservatives gain four, hold one but also lose one to the Liberal Democrats \u2013 who are actually predicted to do well picking up two \u2013 also landing one from the SNP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the Bookmakers believe the Scottish Nationalists will do well, despite having four seats in the top-ten marginals \u2013 as they are predicted to to keep three of those.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Labour don\u2019t see any gains in the top-ten, and actually lose the three they currently hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
