Not a very grown up outlook so far, recycling many ?hilarious? media puns Maybe they are ?broken? , time will tell but much as I dislike Clegg, the fact remains this country did not elect a single party ? some sort of coalition was required. I do not believe the country would have had the stomach for a Lib-Lab coalition and so Clegg decided the country (yes) and the party (too) would best be served by tempering SOME of the Tories excesses They are damned if they do and damned if they don?t. People SAY they want an end to tribal politics and wish they would act like grown-ups and just get the job done. Yet when that happens not only are they pilloried but in the most lowest-common-denominator way Personally, despite protests, the period they serve in power will do them good and they will become a stronger force in British politics
