I've no problem with a referendum - after all which party has ever actually taken account of one that didn't produce the results it wanted? I bet that hasn't gone down well with a lot of the Tory party.

He did announce before the election campaigns began he would not use PR as a bargaining point, when he negotiated with the party who gained the most seats if the election was hung. The announcement of Labour and the Liberals opening negotiations may have an effect in that the Conservatives may feel under pressure to offer a few more concessions if they see power slipping away from them, the lib-dems not controlling the announcement of the negotiations may feel under pressure not to lose public opinion and credibility and accept a reasonable deal which may have been less than they actually wanted to. |

A referendum on what? I'm guessing it's about the election process sicne it was a big part of the libdem policies.

They are practically all corrupt - corruption is not exclusive to one party! They all abuse their priviledges, given half the chance, looking to line their own pockets before those of the ordinary voters! Labour are no better or worse than the Conservatives in that department!

Nick Clegg is still in meeting at the moment.
They have ordered pizza now which is the first decision they have made so far.

And yet Labour swept to power on the promise that THEY and they alone would abolish all sleaze and corruption in parliament instead of which they will go down in history as THE most corrupt and dishonest government we have ever had. If there were no other reason than the illegal war in Iraq (which Labour supporters conveniently neglect to mention when eulogising about them) that would be sufficient reason for them to be kicked out of power - pity no criminal charges have been brought yet.

2149 The Lib Dems are guilty of "a form of betrayal" by opening talks with Labour after being offered compromises by the Conservatives, Phillip Blond, director of the Tory think-tank ResPublica, says.

Minority Conservative Government is the way forward - Cameron should withdraw all offers to Clegg and go it alone.

Clegg must say Today which way he is Going. He can not sit on this for weeks. If Clegg can Not control his own party then we will never ever have him in power. This is about Democracy It is Important to British and Scottish and Welsh and North Irish. Clegg said its for the nation we now find out his Party tell him how to talk. Pathetic. |

Funny how interested you are in British politics, personally I couldn't give a toss about the Aussie government, you could all go to hell in a handcart for all I care! But it's quite refreshing having a troll to rise to the challenge to on a daily basis so looking forward to next round. BTW have you done a recount yet? ![]()

"wrong ... a minority conservative government would find it extremely difficult to pass laws. Cameron knows that.... you apparently don't." mahahaha I take an interest in world politics, not just British politics. It's called having open mind and not a blinkered one. angus you said:" A minority Conservative government is far better, AND infinitely more democratic" Wrong. center left votes lab/lib plus sdlp = 318 right wing fascist votes( :P) con/DUP plus unionist = 315 this is why lab can form a minority government while cons cannot. They won't get bills through. That BS about 1974 means nothing. more people votes centre left. Cameron didn't get a majority despite his dream run because the MAJORITY of people DIDN'T want him.
