Most people don’t want a hung Parliament. Yes, it would be good to give our politicians a good hard kicking, to make them start to be a bit more democratic and less totalaristic, but that novelty wouldn’t last long, and we’d be spending millions on a fresh set of elections within months.
If the Parliament is hung, Gordon Brown can stay on, and try to make a pact with the Lib Dems. Nick Clegg hasn’t been vocal about what he’d do if the Parliament was hung.
Remember what happened in Camden Council after the last local elections? The Liberals didn’t bat an eyelid, hesitate or pause for thought before they got into bed with the Tories.
The Tories didn’t come second, they came third in the actual polls. The Liberals, instead of listening to the voting population, chose that they could build on their poll result, and take the whole of Camden Council the next time. They jumped straight into the fire, and there’s no sign of regret in their eyes.
Over the last few years, the Liberal Democrats introduced a new ethos at Camden Council – “cheaper is better”. Even if it means more expensive in the long run repairing shoddy workmanship. They’ve been cutting costs and paring things to the bone well before that vile attempt at a human from Barnet Council came up with the idea of an easyCouncil. The same vile attempt I wrote about asleep at his desk, when he was supposed to be Mayor of the bloody Borough!
Bearing in mind how there are many identity groups in this country who don’t appreciate the Tories, it’s worth bearing in mind what the Liberals could do if the Parliament is hung. Will they get into bed with Cameron? I wouldn’t even consider voting for the yellow lot until we know we’re not going to get Cameron as a PM as a result.
