It would be wise of everyone to wait a while and see what actually gets implemented before they go preening and chest thumping.
I agree with you! I just get pissed off with those types I mentioned above, especially the ones who use lies & half truths in their arguments.

Which is the entire reason that I usually steer well clear of these type's of debates. People entrench themselves in lies and untruths and dig themselves deeper, so I just don't get involved.
All the good stuff is merely Lib Dem policy which the Tories conceded to get their sorry arses elected.Cheesy said:MCFC-alan88 said:I'm not a follower of any party, they're all conmen, but it's a little early to crow either way isn't it?

Tories merely proved that they will get into bed with anyone just to gain power. Labour MPs refused to compromise all they stood for. Why am I not surprised?Cheesy said:tommyducks said:All the good stuff is merely Lib Dem policy which the Tories conceded to get their sorry arses elected.
But it's not is it??? What was I saying about lies & half truths?

I can't really argue with your first point tbh with you but now that it's happened I really do think we've got a real chance of genuine change. I do think it's very naive to think that Labour didn't want a coalition because they weren't willing to compromise their ideals. I think Labour knew a 'rainbow' coalition just couldn't work.
Mate, I honestly hope it works. We need stability.Cheesy said:tommyducks said:Tories merely proved that they will get into bed with anyone just to gain power. Labour MPs refused to compromise all they stood for. Why am I not surprised?

Even if it did occur, Lib-Dem/Labour still wouldn't have had the majority seats, they'd have merely caught up with the Conservatives, they'd have had to rope other parties into it, it just wouldn't have been pretty.

Tories 305 seats
Labour 258 seats
Lib Dems 57 seats
when I went to school 258 + 57 was more than 305.
