I don't agree with Clegg.

The Tories have 37% of the vote. That means that 63% of the British public did not vote for them.

Labour and Lib Dem have over 50% between them.

With a fair electoral system they would forming the new government as we speak.

Well done Gordon. Measured, authoritative, conciliatory. And carrying out his job.

I actually applauded (and I'm lib-dem)

good speech from gord

Hassled · 07/05/2010 13:48

He did well referring to other events going on - very statesmanlike. We're carrying on the serious stuff while those around us squabble, etc.

Yes. That puts Hammy under pressure

Hassled · 07/05/2010 13:45

Poor Gordon. I do feel for him. But much as it sticks in my throat to say it, I do think Clegg was right this morning.

MmeLindtChocBrownies · 07/05/2010 13:44

He is staying, I would say.

Loving the ham analogies/jokes.

So true about well branded value ham.

DH (French) just asked what I was laughing at - much as I love him, I suspect our cultural divide is too wide for any explanation to bear fruit of understanding and mirth on his part.

BecauseIAgreeWithGordon · 07/05/2010 13:43

Here's Gordon now ...

Bucharest · 07/05/2010 13:42

Marking place although no dount you'll be on a new thread by the time I get back.
Off to work, with the lovely image of Boris smacking Hameron's hammy botty now in my mind thanks to last pages of old thread. Thanks for that

I can't believe the guff Michael Howard is spouting. What a vile man he is.

MmeLindtChocBrownies · 07/05/2010 13:39

What did Mandy write, Justa?

taffetacat · 07/05/2010 13:38

loving your lyrics HalfTermHero

I'm still curious about the possibility of John Denham as leader if GB does go. Low profile but resigned over the Iraq war, that's in his favour no?

Anyone know much about him?
