A keen and academic assessment of the recent general election by one of Britain's top political historians: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-general-election-2015

The 2015 election will be the first one since 1935 at which a coalition government will be defending its record. It will be a multi-party election in which the competition will be between not only the three major parties, but also the nationalists and UKIP. A hung parliament and a further coalition are both distinct possibilities.

This lecture, to be delivered just five days after the likely date of the election, will seek to make sense of the outcome.

The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-general-election-2015
