However, these things have a way of changing once voting is done.
I would suggest that Labours stance is an attempt to shore up their vote against losses by tactical voting/people voting for the Greens because they'd go into coalition with Labour.
As you say, once the vote is in, and if it becomes apparent that a coalition is on the cards then I'd expect that to change. Labour+UKIP, say.

Agreed. Not my preferred strategy, but it makes sense if you're coming at it from that perspective. And it's not unique to them.
The libdems have said they will not form a coalition with labour (or the Tories).
