Well done 'newjudge'; and as I've commented on before "coalitions are in effect a mis-match". The junior party, as clearly evidenced by the Lib-Dems at present, will clearly sell their souls, even prostitute themselves for a share in power, perhaps even mis-judged kudos. There is a comment re Vince Cable, personally I think he is a 'worthy politician', and as I simply do not understand what the Lib Dems stand for - I do not think that Vince Cable is a Lib Dem. Politically he is more in line with being closer aligned to a slightly right wing Socialist. btw. With indecision in the Electorate, perhaps Wales is a fairly good argument to show that in 'minority' countries ; coalitions, or even a minority government with sensible opposition can work !! That said don't look at our [Welsh] NHS situation at present.
