She is Deluded
to say she can win a General Election
Fact.

This has always been the problem with the Libs, the Alliance and then Lib Dems.

They know, they could be as high as 30%, The Cons on 28% even and Labour 3rd on 25%.
This would still leave under this daft first past the post system.
The Cons largest Party
Labour 2nd.
Lib Dems not far but still comfortably behind Labour.

That is a pure fact.

Then as Swinson did this morning, the Lib Dems not saying where they'd lean.

From experience, its clear after 2010, they would lean more to the Cons.
Maybe not at present on brexit.
However can they be trusted.
In my view no.

As she was told, going from 18 seats to over 300 is as near impossible as it can be, with our voting system.

Voting Lib Dem thinking you can get rid of the Cons is folly.
If we had PR, fine, no extremes of parties could then likely succeed.

However its still as it has been for many decades since Labour rose to be a party of power.

If you want a Con government. Vote Con.
If you don't, vote Labour.

I think an election now is likely to result in another hung parliament.
Voting Lib Dem will ensure that more than likely, and result in a Con led government again.

This vote to revoke article 50.
Is a concern if not asking the voters again.
A general election asks lots of questions.
It can't be the means to decide brexit.

Sadly, despite the mess the 2 main parties are in.
The Lib Dems fence sitting, falsely believing they can win outright, js their trying to have it all ways stance again.
Which is likely to leave them with nothing in any way at all, and the UK stuck with a very extreme and worrying Con government.
