Can't say that anyone should be remotely surprised. After all, it was a Tory budget with a slight yellow trim.

Of course, Sub Prime Minister Clegg is already desperately trying to stick up for his new 'buddies', but plus ca change...

Lib Dems are more or less finsihed, i think.

Let's face it, the Tories did not want them there, they just needed them.

And I am pretty damn sure their core support could've stomached a Labour deal a whole lot more.

Sorry, I will now stop stating the bloody obvious.

There's been one MP defection from LibDems to Labour and rumours of more to come. Cleggy must be ruing the day he said "Yes Dave".

TBH, I think even he knows it was a one shot deal, and he don't care.

Now Cameron's probably going to concentrate on dad things for a spell it'll be Clegg at the helm.

A wee moment of glory, that's all it's about for him.

Heard some lib-dem mp say something like 'we can no longer just tell the public unrealistic things about what can be achieved', as if that's all the lib-dems ever did 'fore they 'got in'.

Surely not?

Anyways, the public really 'voted fo'r a tory/labour pact, didn't they?

The Lib'Dems got eff all, cheeky sods.

Hehe just imagine it though.
