Coalition of the willing

"Asked if the Tories would support a referendum on AV if it was proposed by Labour, Hague said Labour was proposing introducing AV without a referendum.

Hague said, under the Tory plans, Tories would be free to campaign against AV in a referendum."

So, Tories (as I thought) offered just referendum (probably long time away to ensure Lib Dems don't split off), and will be able to campaign against it!

Well, I'd say we are going to have Lab-Lib Govt soon.

AtW,
Gordon was "proposing a referendum" on joining the EU. We are still waiting. You should realise that you can always tell when Gordon/NL is/are being economical with the truth....his lips are moving.

HTH

Yes and given that in this case Labour are clearly offering immediate voting on reform so that Lib Dems get what they want straight away.

Frankly as much as I hate Nu Liebor they are making right offer and if I was Nick I'd go with Liebor because going with Cons will get fook all to Lib Dems.

Looks like Cons don't actually want to govern.

Labour

Clear



Bait'n'switch, bait'n'switch, I tell you.

Where the fook do you get that from?
I read it that Labour are "proposing" introducing it. There is nothing to stop them doing another u-turn at the eleventh hour.
Jeezz.....good thing gullible clowns like you don't have a vote.

Nice trolling post AtW you f*ckwit!

Labour are desperate. So desperate that they'll agree to anything. Of course, they've agreed to it before, but this time they're fooked!

Conservatives are sticking to principles. Liberals = bedwetters. Labour = Union gobtulipes. Tories = Cash rich contractors.

No right minded contractor would ever vote anything but Tory!

It makes me sick to the stomach to think we might land up with a minority government of Union Gobtulipes and Bedwetters. We may as well call it the TPD Government!

Their offer is bollox - I can accept that referendum might be necessary, however if they say they can campaign against then the deal is worthless: they either agree to reform in which case they get a deal, or they don't - in which case they can continue being opposition.

It seems to me that they've made massive mistake assuming they will get deal, retards - should have offered what Nick wanted and close it within 24 hours.

Cleggs party is going to screw up the whole of the UK.

We have another election coming people!!!!! Labour + Liberal <326.

Simple maths AtW that even a moron like you can work out!!!!!!!!

And how effective an opposition they can be too. A raggle-taggle disjointed band of disparate interests, all of whom have emerged from the latest election with reduced electorate support, all jostling to feather their own best interests. Everything from rampant Nationalists to Champagne Socialists to limp gutless Liberals. What a flimsy pack of cards that will produce. Being a strong opposition to that mob, led as they surely will be by a second consecutive unelected PM, will be meat and drink to the Tories. They can sit and wait for the whole thing to collapse in internecine squabbling and indecision, then clean up at the next election later in the year. Might be what they have been aiming for all along. Give 'em enough rope I say.
