To ask for your predictions for the timing of the next General Election

Just finished reading about the rise in the energy cap announced today and the forecast of gloom and doom to come. The cap was within £5 of the predicted figure and yet neither candidate for PM would say what they would do to help, until it was actually announced. The Tories have been in turmoil for months and the leadership contest seems interminable. All the while, the crises we face seem to deepen and the government seems to be MIA, or AWOL, depending on how you view it. I was wondering how long people think it will be before a general election is called, what you think will precipitate it, and what the result might be.
