Depressed lefty red-eye thread

[policywonk]

hello

Ooh, according the Andrew Neil the tory hierarchy are not happy bunnies and electoral reform is not on the cards

A reality check here - Tory MPs seem to be blaming Cameron for not gettign an overall majority, and say they won't countenance conceding to electoral reform.

Boris does his bumbling act with calculation, I think. I remember him as a student, in his I Heart Maggie badge

did any of you clock what andrew neil said?

not much chance of a lib/con coalition then.

Hehehehe at the Tories falling out when they actually have a chance!

inmyhead you are forgetting that Cameron alone can't agree this - see what the Tory MPs are saying...
Tbh anything could happen.
I think I will go and have some lunch now...

So the tories don't want a 're-vote' (is that what an electoral reform is?)

I'm really sorry about my novice questions, I'm genuinly enthralled but lack the knowledge

i adore the thought of puce faced tory grandees sputtering that cameron was too leftist during the campaign!

love it.

would Clegg lose a referendum on PR?

I think most people are fairly pro some form of PR - maybe not straight PR but perhaps AV or enhanced AV or whatever they call it.

The difference between AV (good) and (AV+)PR is nicely explained here.

Yes, Johnson was favouring AV+ last night. It's the system here in Ireland and it is not as transparent or as democratic in my view as AV. I'll get a t-shirt printed with 'I agree with Jack Straw'

Saw and enjoyed Sophable. Love to be a fly on the wall of the Tory discussions.

That sounded very promising

Boris actually LOVED Maggie. Not just her politics. He loved her as a woman. Men like hime like a feisty bit of rough like her.

Indeed, it seems Hameron is not the tory messiah, he's a very naughty boy

there is also a problem with Lib/Lab coalition - they don't have an overall majority without another partner. So I think Clegg's calculation absolutely correct.

come out come out senior tory grandee wherever you are....

ooh unrest in the Tories, I bet Hameron is shitting himself.

I am NOT a naughty boy, I am Spartacus.

"bags of malice" - snort!

Although still confused about what exactly to hope for now. Its hard to work out how best this short-lived government should go, in order to ensure that longterm, things go in right direction. again.

Prolesworth, I am about to go and meet a friend for a soothing South Indian lunch. I fear that image will not allow it to settle.

PMSL at naughty boy Hameron and prospect of Tories imploding

Hellooooo.
I have some catching up to do. This all just gets more and more Looking-Glass like though, doesn't it?

HYPOTHETICALLY...

If after all this they said, right vota again tomorrow, what do you think would happen?

Would people vote the same? Would more people vote?
