A delay Lords reform/boundary changes pact means that LAB can win overall majority with just 3% lead. CON needs 11% lead.

A delay Lords reform/boundary changes pact means that Nadine’s seat is safe for next time.

I’m not convinced that the Tories will agree to this. The prize from the boundary changes is so big for them and a postponement just makes it easier for Ed Miliband to win.
