what they will do is just tell people it is available on the BBC Iplayer assuming everyone has access to it, just like they did with Radio 4 listeners

Well Cameron in the new PM. I hope he does a good job at tackling the important issues. More importantly I hope for Labour to come out fighting and turn around its fortunes for the next election

Now watch as unemployment rises due to savage job cuts in the public sector to pay the price of those in the banking sector who caused the economic mess.

Not this year, Brown and Darling allowed banks to pay bonuses March/April.

Can't believe Clegg is Deputy Prime Minister. It will be interesting when he does PMQ's when Cameron can't be there

Really don't understand that decision...though the position has not carried too much power in the past it's still a very high profile position for a party member with very little stake in the powersharing :\

Another crime that can be laid at New Labour's door for baling out the incompetent banks in the first place! Drastic times call for drastic measures. They can start by pruning back the bureaucracy clogging up the public sector and making sure we get full value for every pound spent.

Shouldn't think Dave will give a toss about left wing Guardian slurs, its par for the course.

The Conservatives begin badly.
They are introducing a measures so that 55% of MPs are now required for confidence motion to succeed. 357 MPs will be required to vote Cameron out. Even if the LibDems vote against him, Cameron will carry on as PM.
All the parties, except the Conservatives, make 52.5% of the commons. So it would take a good proportion on his own MP's to get him out. Cameron will be PM right through to 2015.

I'm guessing NC will have to toe the coalition line during PMQ , since the decisions made by the coalition are effectively joint decisions.

You are of course forgeting that the House of Commons is only one part of the parliamentary process. There is the House of Lords who also need to approve Commons Decisions.
