2011 Predictions revisited

2011 is over, let's see how badly I did...

David Laws will make an early return to Government, in a reshuffle sometime in January or February. 0 points.

The AV referendum will be narrowly lost, but on a low turnout. 1/2 point - it wasn't so narrow

Vince Cable will walk out of the Government. 0 points

Ed Miliband will have a poor year despite the polls and there will be a whispering campaign around to bring his brother back. 1 point

Diane Abbott will walk out of her shadow portfolio. 0 points

The coordinated strikes threatened for Easter will be a damp squib compared to the jollity of the Royal Wedding. 1/2 point.

Sebastien Vettel will be F1 World Champion again, just beating Lewis Hamilton. 1/2 point - Vettel won, but by a healthy margin over Button

Michael Schumacher will walk away from F1 mid-way through the year. 0 points

CPI Inflation will hit 4.0%, but we will have annual growth of 1.8%. 1/2 point, CPI did hit 4%, growth was worse than 1.8%

The parties will end the year on: 39% Tories, 42% Labour, 12% LibDem. 1 point.

Overall 4 points, which is pretty bad. Let's see what next year brings...

Squiffy.
