Untrustworthy... for doing exactly what he said he'd do before the election? 'Seek to form a government with the party with the most votes/seats'?

You can hardly blame him for talking to Labour as well, what if the talks with the Tories had fallen apart and he'd had to start from scratch with Labour/ An extra 3-4 days of no government.

What exactly do you think is untrustworthy?

I can't discuss yet am too incensed by the whole affair

That's been my opinion all along Jackstarbright.

And I suspect that the Tories were fully aware of the talks.

I now think he had to open talks with Labour, if only to prove to his own party that LibLab could never work (cue Labour party walking away from deal).

Not sure it bodes well for PR in the future! And his MP's cooperation comes at a high personal cost to his golden boy image.

Just my current opinion which changes by the hour!
