evildrneil Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Nope, they were not elected, the tories were but not by a majority giving Clegg the opportunity to suck up and throw away the principles of a lot of his (Ex) supporters. Don't see what the pope's visit has got to do with it. Did he vote labour? Good Owd lad! Of course they were elected - in fact as between them they got 59.1% of the vote you could claim they were a lot more legitimate that the 2005 Labour government that only got 35.3% of the vote.

Yes but not when they're 'deputising' for PM when there's an international crisis going on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greybeard Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 It will be interesting to see how well the Lib Dems do in the Barnsley Central election on Thursday. They enjoyed a 4.2% swing form Labour in May...I imagine the pendulum will come crashing back the other way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daftlad Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 ..and that politicians and even DPMs are entitled to take time out with the family on holiday like the rest of us. they are indeed, but why not go in the designated breaks in the parliament recess time. in summer for example they get almost 10 weeks off. nice work if you can get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
