Labour leader Ed Miliband has formally ruled out a coalition with the SNP, stating that there are big differences between the two parties.
Mr Miliband said, "There will be no SNP ministers in any government I lead," and stated that such talk was scare-mongering by his Conservative opponents.
He said, "Not ruling out a deal, or a pact, or support from the Scottish National Party means that the Labour Party is effectively saying, 'We're trying to ride to power on the back of a party that wants to break up our country.'"
The SNP pushed for the Scottish referendum in 2014 which was to decide whether Scotland should break away from the United Kingdom or not.
The Conservative Party have made repeated insinuations that the Labour Party will enter into a coalition agreement with the SNP in the event of their not winning enough seats for an outright Westminster majority after the elections on May 7th 2015.
