Someone else I've never had any time or respect for has just gone up about a million percent in my estimation:

The way things are going it seems as if the only likely outcome is a new election in six months time. If this is the sort of unprincipled, sneaky dealing we can expect with proportional representation, then I'd prefer to stay with first past the post. I thought Nick Clegg had principles - seems a lot of us were wrong and he has blown his political future as far the British public is concerned

There is a growing resentment of Nick Clegg, if he doesn't hurry up he might damage his party

I think my mum summed it up well this morning:

"Who does this twerp Clegg thinks he is, holding the country to ransom? The Queen should tell him to bugger off."

\o/ PMKeates mum should form a government sounds like she knows what shes doing unlike most of the MP's

Another nice one:

Simon Thornton writes: Having become sceptical about the nature of our current crop of politicians, the statements and actions of the Lib Dems and Conservatives on Friday and over the weekend was a breath of fresh air - should have known it wouldn't last! Is the new Lib Dem Party slogan "Ask not what your party can do for our country, ask what the country can do for your party"

(sorry)

Feeling in my waters a Con & Lib deal gets struck...in principle....today.

 

[robgmun]

i agree

Hearing that David Milliband pushed the LD too hard and they ran off back to the Cons

(next time he should bring the lube)

Now now, I can find a few Labour sycophants just going a few pages back!

I wasn't one of them though big boy!

He should either accept the deal that Cameron has offered him, or state his support for a minority Conservative Government.

You mean you haven't educated her as to why it's not Clegg's fault? I am surprised

Trying to change my mum's mind about political issues:

She's Tory by nature - hard working, principled etc.

Asked what was in the interests of the Labour Party, Mr Blunkett said "Dunno, I haven't got a clue." a most perceptive analysis with which no reasonable person could possibly argue

It's not his fault? As party leader he commands the respect of his party, and as such should be able to hard sell them the idea of joining the Tories.
If he can't then he's either a weak leader, or he wants "more".

In Breaking news, Fulham and Everton have been awarded the Premiership title this year because their combined points total was greater than Chelsea's.

That's what most good people are.

The implication of your picture seems (quite sensibly) to be that most Tories are "Thick as a brick outhouse"

.... "Thick as a brick outhouse"

That's not even a saying, socialist dimwits

Morgan Stanley has told its traders to short-sell the GBP aiming for a 10% yield. No other major investment bank is doing this, a lot doing the opposite.

Morgan Stanley also pays Tony Blair £1m a year for political and strategic advice. Blair's former chief of staff is also on the MS investment advisory payroll.

Do they know something we don't?
