I saw something in one of the Sunday papers about Ainsworth being under investigation over the Mastiff contract and not declaring an interest following meeting with management of the company? could be wrong

The Tories are an unknown look at the 1981 defence review! I don't think Labour will have a majority to form a govt next election but Lib Dems could be a dark horse. I don't seriously believe we'll have a libdem govt however if there are lots of independants/UKIP/BNP/Green etc voted in as well it will make forming a govt with a working majority very tricky and a coalition will muddy the waters consideribly
