Britain's ruling Labour party today seemed to be heading for its worst election defeat in 92 years as the prime minister admitted that he has paid a very "heavy price" for his 'bigoted' outburst against an elderly widow,even as two top newspapers withdrew their support to him. Days before the general election on May 6,a Daily Mail poll revealed Labour support has crashed to 24 per cent following Prime Minister Gordon Brown's 'bigot' gaffe and his lacklustre performance in the final TV debate. But it provided cold comfort for Conservative leader David Cameron - putting his party on 33 per cent,just one ahead of the Liberal democrats. The findings suggest Britain is firmly on course for a hung Parliament - even though a majority of voters believe that outcome will be bad for the country and the economy.
