Can we have a big hand for Mr Nick Clegg ?


he has singlehandedly ensure that the LibDems are unelectable on the national stage for a generation, but has now killed off any chance of fundamental change to the current FPTP system and at the same time, wiped out the parties headcount & influence in local councils.


I can understand Cameron - he does what you would expect for a rich toff with a background in PR. I can understand Millband - with his MOR Socialism lite & North London ways. Clegg has been exposed for what he is - a smug little ambitious, moral and principle free shitehawk.


*slow handclap to those sporting victims faces *

It's hard to see how Clegg could have played his deputy PM hand any worse. All he had to do was - occasionally - not look like he was enjoying it so much, but alas it was seeping out of every pore for all to see.


By contrast the Cons have played a near perfect hand, and must be weeing themselves with joy over the results so far.

Yes potentialy the worst hand ever, makes you wonder about the rest of the party he leads if he sits at the top, christ knows whats below him? Worse still he is our deputy prime minister.....bloody terrifying actually.


Anyone seen James Barber this morning ? I heard he was keeping his head down in a boat on the middle of Dulwich Park Lake ? apparently the pro AV's are huddled in a boat next to him with captain 'Philip VI of Huguenot' at its helm.


" come in No13 your time is up "

I wouldn't be too quick to gloat.


Clegg is Cameron - only minus the coaching. And Cameron's got the top job, not just the joke deputy PM job. That's the really terrifying part.


So you're rejoicing that one sharp-suited PR drone with no real principles was better at PR than the other one.


Some victory.

The thing is that the electorate has now pretty much ensured that the coalition will run the full course, unless the Tories try their hand at an early election. The LibDems would need to be suicidal to pull out and force an election at this stage.


My guess is that Clegg will go at about year 3 and then a new leader will be installed to try and give the party a new face for 2015.

The Tories and the SNP are the only winners from yesterday. Slight increase for the Tories in council seats (against all expectations) and a win in the referendum. LibDems suffered the election from hell. Plaid Cymru went backwards. Labour failed to capitalise in England and had a disaster in Scotland, though almost pulled it off in Wales.


Cameron, much as I hate to admit, has played a blinder.

    • I am looking for a second hand running buggy, still in good condition. Please send me details if you have one to sell/give away. Thanks 😊
    • It sounds like both cats have chosen to flee & seek temporary refuge rather than risk another confrontation with this dominant cat. Find out whether or not the cat has an owner & if he is neutered. If the cat is fixed, unchipped & no owner comes forward to claim him, you can contact Celia Hammond, Cats Protection or Stray Cat Club to arrange a TNR. This would remove the current threat & give these cats an opportunity to return home safely if they are close by. Our team carry scanners as part of a voluntary initiative to help reunite missing cats with their owners. We'll be keeping a look out for Gladys & Doris on our daily travels. I hope your friend is reunited with them soon.  
    • Have heard them twice this afternoon. Have binoculars at the ready.....are there any other birds that make similar calls? It's a very distinctive sound. Stand by! 
    • Do you have any binoculars?  My first ever sighting of swifts was when I was lying in the park, trying out some 10x25s.  Nothing at all  within plain sight, but when I was playing around with the focus -- presumably for clouds or planes -- suddenly there they were.   I've still never heard any in real life though.  The sample I heard on the BBC website sounded fairly high frequency and not very loud, so I suppose I might miss some; but then there have been precious few reports I've seen here of any being heard.  The only one I remember is Jenny1's last year.
