It smacks of desperation to me. "Vote LibDem and we'll give you money". If Nick Clegg removed himself from the coalition - and bear in mind he's Deputy Prime Minister right now, the second most powerful man in government - all he will be is leader of the party who came third in the general election. His party is falling apart as the local election results in May showed. If he wanted really to make us take him seriously, he should perhaps take up the cause of fuel duty or immigration, something that means something to people, instead of this pie-in-the-sky silliness.

Hi Joey, hope you're well.
