Why the lib-dems are shit

[butchersapron]

Look at these pricks:

Lib Dems prepare for possible talks in 2015 with potential coalition partners

Danny Alexander, the Treasury chief secretary, is to lead a Liberal Democrat team preparing for possible negotiations with other parties in the event of a hung parliament after the 2015 general election, the Lib Dem leader, Nick Clegg, told his MPs late Monday.

A politically balanced, five-strong team has been appointed: Alexander; general election manifesto co-ordinator David Laws; Lady Brinton; international development minister Lynne Featherstone; and pensions minister Steve Webb. Featherstone and Webb are regarded as on the left of the party.

And Wintour doing his job of attempting to make them appear as credible - another prick.

The comments on that piece are grand - people doubted that we could keep the anger up until the next election, well the response to any article by Wintour, or in fact any about the lib-dems in any paper or media forum, gives the lie to that. Well done all you angry memorious people.

The team

Danny Alexander (Oxbridge, tax avoider, bankers cats paw) Semi-marginal Liberal Democrat seat, probably going to be a marginal come 2015
David Laws (Private school, oxbridge, thief) safe, one of the few nailed on ones despite being a thief, south somerset letting the team down.
Lady Brinton (Private school, oxbridge) unelectable so got her mates to do a backroom deal
Lynne Featherstone (private school, oxfordish, unearthly monster, 999 nuisance caller) Semi-marginal, like Alexander, likely to be marginal next year, i think she's a goner.
Steve Webb (oxbridge, bedroom tax) Should be a goner as he relies on large labour tactical vote, but if tory vote collapses he might scrape through, on the basis of the electorate hating everyone.

even their candidates don't mention their links to Clegg

Look at the prat, pointing at pot holes or standing uncomfortably with his arms dangling shiftily to distract attention from his dishonest beard. What else is he trying to hide?

Quite looking forward to seeing how Wintour (and others) attempt to explain away the Lib Dems' non-participation in any post-election decision making -- after they get soundly steamrollered

He's such a blatant Lib Dem spindoctor (as the below the line comments recognise )

 

[Nylock]

Clegg has said in the event of a hung parliament the Lib Dems would talk first to the party with most seats and votes, but this does not preclude opening talks subsequently with a party with fewer seats.

Possibility of helping get the tories back in if the labour margin of victory is narrow enough to facilitate the libdems strongarming the tories into pushing through more irrelevant libdem shite on the promise of Clegg & co continuing to facilitate the tories' evil policies for a second glorious term?

I hope they get ground into the dust....

if the polls and by's are anything to go by the lib dems days as kingmakers are well and truly over. They just haven't realised it yet.

Yeah, great innit

 

[butchersapron]

Looking forward to this Clegg/Farage one-on-one debate now. Clegg comprehensively and easily outplayed by Farage this morning. Clegg has realised UKIP have now got all his protest vote so is ineffectively and desperately gunning for them. His first salvo was to say Farage leaves the UK isolated in europe by being too 'lazy' and so only turning up to 50% of votes. Of course, Clegg being incompetent and arrogant didn't bother to check his own record - which reveals that he only bothers to turn up to 22% of votes. One nil to Farage.

Vince Cable: 'Teachers know absolutely nothing about the world of work'

Vince Cable has been accused of being “crass” and “insulting” to teachers after he said they are to blame for the lack of quality careers advice in Britain’s schools, claiming they “know absolutely nothing about the world of work”.

Have you seen that they've also polled last in all the other declared bys from yesterday?

The 56 votes in Nottingham at 2 % was actually their best performance!

In Bury (Ramsbottom) they got 38 votes = 1.3%

And in Ashford (Wye) they polled just 13 votes (!) = 1.7%

Haven't seen the Kings Lynn or Wiltshire numbers yet.

 

[butchersapron]

They did well in Wilts i'm afraid: Con 480 Lib Dem (27% +3) 372 UKIP 236 Ind 192 Lab 69

...and apparently not standing in Kings Lynn.
