It was a prediction and heresay I think.
The Conservatives were scouting for potential aid in a minority government situation.. or just any allies so they wouldn't have to deal with the Lib Dems. Little did they expect a non sectarian party to win a seat.

Prediction and heresay aside,
they couldn't possibly win 20 seats because there are only 18 seats.

as long as there were only 13 seats to be won
you could be on to something. call cameron and tell him you've solved it. with that kind of a scoop you could get on the board of directors for newscorp or something.
