Depressed Lefty red eye - The morning after the night before

[Nymphadora]

Hello

I'm afraid you are. If they accept the offer of a formal coalition they won't be free to oppose the areas they have given up. That's why its worth it to Cameron.

I was getting nervous with the rumours before Cameron came on, saying Clegg was going to make a speech shortly after, luckily that seems unfounded!

And why Cameron is trying to scare everyone (and esp the markets) into saying that we have to have a 'stable' govnt.

in the paste? past

Arg, I am so behind.

GREAT speech by Brown. Amazing. So dignified - no posturing or grandstanding. Thanks to Onebat for linking.

Now, where is Ham-face's speech?

Hmmm only know 1 lib dem voter, wonder what he would make of his vote helping the tories in?

Signing in - have only skimmed thread. Heard Dave just now - lots of hot air and no substance; if I were Nick Clegg I'd be mightily unimpressed. Essentially - "we'll compromise on things that were already in our manifesto, and have an enquiry on something that we won't allow to happen in the end".

What irks me is the way labour are getting all the blame for the economy - did they make American banks give dodgy loans? Did they also cause the Icelandic volcano?

Crap, I've got to go out soon... Meeting DSD to go shopping after school. Might have to buy something to cheer myself up.

Another bottle perhaps.

Am I going to miss Nick Clegg's speech?

HamShine - I think you'll find, if you check the rota, that Sue was on volcano duty when it erupted.

this- the economy twaddle- is a piece of doublethink that the Tories are now getting away with unchallenged

'If they accept the offer of a formal coalition they won't be free to oppose the areas they have given up.' yup that's why it would be such a travesty. clegg would be dave's bitch forever.
Oh, I wish Spitting Image was still on...

Nick Clegg has locked himself in bog and refusing to come out

Who is on Twitter

#dontdoitclegg - can we get it trending?

surely clegg can't fall for the whole 'enquiry into electoral reform' line
it's such a blatant fobbing-off exercise

I am with Catissleepy, have nearly always voted libdem, precisely because of their stance on PR, the iraq war, trident etc so if they gave those things up to side with the Tories I could never vote for them again.

Surely NC couldn't take the risk of upsetting such a huge number of his MPs, members and voters?

i wish I understood Twitter

BBC reckons that NC will take offers to party tomorrow and they will be in no rush to decide what they're doing.

I can't stand the tension I just want an answer now.

I'm quite missing Charles Kennedy

LibDems hold St Ives

DH reckons Lib/Lab for the next term might pave the way for cons majority next time, as it's going to be a hard one, and anyone who does what needs to be done is going to be unpopular. Hmm. Did anyone hear the guy from the Swedish govt on the radio a little while ago, talking about when Sweden had austerity measures, etc? - everyone hated it, voted out govt, but it did work.

Have already tweeted, Mme!

The Anxious Tories are now posting about the fact that they have "ousted the lefties from discussions of the day". If that's the best thing they can find to celebrate...

Also pmsl that we are on the - what - 3rd? 4th? thread and they are still on number 1. Would it be very wrong of me to wonder if that's because Tory supporters are all one-finger typists?

ooh, I looked for the tories a short while ago and couldn't find them in active convos
