 The General Election gets underway for real on Thursday and although the bookmakers have all the data and polls there is still a huge amount of uncertainty on the outcome. The Conservatives are favourites at odds on of 1/16 with Paddy Power but the question is “Will They Get An Overall Majority" or are we heading for a hung parliament.
