英闻天天译: 鹿死谁手未可知

Ed Miliband's political future is hanging in the balance if the exit poll is correct, senior labour figures have conceded. Mandelson said it was "very difficult indeed" to see Miliband becoming prime minister if the Conservatives won 316 seats and Labour 239, in accordance with the BBC numbers.
The Labour peer and former Downing Street adviser said Miliband had done a "magnificent job" during the campaign and he would not want to see him resign. However, Mandelson sidestepped questions about whether he would like to see the Labour leader fight another election if Cameron returns as prime minister.

PS: 建议把BBC这个成分放前面，因为中文表述时总是会先说：据...显示/...称。
