Why the lib-dems are shit

Beaker denies wanting to be LD leader and therefore formally opens his campaign bid in time honoured fashion.

(Wishfully) thinking ahead to his next coalition, (it doesn't matter who with), Beaker nails down precisely who will be the lucky partner...

We would seek to work with whichever party, Labour or Conservatives, had the strongest mandate from the electorate.

Nicely done. So that could be number of seats or total votes/% popular mandate.

So that's all cleared up, then?
 
The lib dems can have beaker, Tories can have Shapps (sure he was mooted a few years ago before being found out), labour stick with Millibot and UKIP can have that rhombus-headed thunderbird puppet guy. That'll leave the ground clear for a charismatic socialist of some kind to romp home and fix it all. Maybe.

Christ did you hear that cunt Oakeshott on ch4 news just now? 'We're not centrists we're radical progressives' who the fuck buys this shit anymore? That Clegg arrogantly dismissing that student's question earlier today too. I can't wait for these snivelling, spineless power hungry oxygen thieves to be completely and utterly annihilated at the EU elections and more so at the general elections. I hope they get set on fire, ground into the dirt, pissed on, shit on and their ashes distributed down the toilets at Glastonbury on day five of the festival.

They're even worse than the tories, at least the tories are straight up about their cuntishness these fucks still try and deny it even now.
 
After all the shit they've stood behind the tories on, from bedroom tax to flogging off the NHS, they only get in a bit of a tizzle when Cameron starts making negative noises about wind farms.
 
That twat Clegg today desperately trying to distance himself today from all the Tory policies that they have supported and held up. Just.Fuck.Off.You.Cunt :mad:

Seen on Lab leaflets...apparently...

I don't normally big-up tory gains, but yesterday's election in Osbournby (N.Kesteven....tory gain from Ind.) produced a rather amusing result for the LDs.....9.....yes, that's 9 votes, not %. So, beyond Mr Richardson's immediate family, I'm figuring that he came close to zero.

Con 312 49.68%
Ind 269 42.83%
Lab 38 6.05%
LD 9 1.43%

Turnout 33.8%

2011 - Ind 661, Con 289
2007 - Ind 419, Con 402
2003 - Con 295, Ind 286, LD 247, Lab 67

Kate COOK (Conservative and Unionist Party)
Fay COOPER (Lincolnshire Independent)
Robert GREETHAM (Labour Party)
Tony RICHARDSON (Liberal Democrats)

1.43%...ouch.
 
On C4 Crick just did a quick, preliminary look at the reduction in LD council candidates standing, and pointed out about 5 districts/authorities where they've put up a third or less than last time. The famed local base appears less than secure.
 
yeah, they've got fuck all. Tories seem to be struggling round here too for local - Lavalette's replacement (my ward) is going to be Labour unnapposed. (well, sort of - there's two seats up in May, one of which is Lavalette's, and three candidates - two Labour one Tory)

By last time do you mean 2013 or the last time these seats were contested (2010) ?

The latter, I think...but tbf there weren't many details...Crick made it clear that the piece was a work in progress; it hasn't been very long since the nominations were closed.
 
Tele loving this...

Senior party figures were warned that the party’s electoral unpopularity meant that the party was facing seeing its 11 MEPs lose all their seats.

The warning came at a meeting of the party's hierarchy including Lord Ashdown, the former party leader who is coordinating the party’s election campaign.

Numbered briefing documents were handed out at the meeting, which warned that no MEPs after the election was now a realistic option.

The party looks set to do much worse than in the same polls in 2009, when it was left with 11 MEPs and won 2.1million votes or 14 per cent of the vote.

One insider told The Daily Telegraph “it is looking like an absolute bloodbath”.

Classic expectation 'management'...when they get one single MEP Clegg will hail it as 'much better than expected!':D
 
Comedy gold...

Nick Clegg is a “self-obsessed” and “revolting character” who is “so dishonest” that he cannot tell the difference between truth and lies, a former aide to Michael Gove has said...

...Clegg is the “worst kind of modern MP” and whenever Mr Clegg gave a speech he used to demand "hundreds of millions of taxpayers' money" for his "latest absurd gimmick"....

"He is self-obsessed, sanctimonious and so dishonest he finds the words truth and lies have ceased to have any objective meaning, and he treats taxpayers money with contempt.

...but, other than that, he's a fine deputy tory prime minister.:D
 
Hancock has tried to get the civil case against him thrown out/stayed because he “lacks the capacity to instruct his legal team” due to his mental health.

I take it he'll be standing down as both a councilor and MP then?


'Mr Hancock, who is standing as an independent candidate in Portsmouth's Fratton ward in May's local elections, applied to judge Master Leslie for an open-ended stay.

Harriet Wistrich, solicitor for the constituent, questioned how "a man standing for re-election in under four weeks time" can claim lack of capacity....'

'In a statement his spokesman said was still recovering in hospital from the heart operation and that he also suffered from "a severe depressive disorder".

"He is, obviously, therefore unable to play any active part in his local election campaign," the statement continued.

"His Portsmouth and House of Commons offices remain open and fully staffed and are dealing with his work."'

What a piece of work.
