Which combines well with Hague in the Foreign Office to set the kind of standards to be expected from a Cameron Government

Britain has a new Prime Minister Werthead - 11/05/2010 08:12:50 PM 1098 Views
Oh, right, I had totally forgotten that... Legolas - 11/05/2010 08:14:31 PM 830 Views
Nope. The Tories can form a minority government and risk the danger of collapsing. Werthead - 11/05/2010 08:18:31 PM 826 Views
That is what is being reported. From the Guardian quoting an unnamed Lib Dem MP snoopcester - 11/05/2010 08:30:52 PM 869 Views
But at the price of PR, no doubt. Legolas - 11/05/2010 08:32:02 PM 828 Views
Maybe not. Werthead - 11/05/2010 08:41:24 PM 880 Views
Not much of a price, I suspect snoopcester - 11/05/2010 08:49:38 PM 852 Views
That is the biggest danger to the LibDems. Werthead - 11/05/2010 09:10:09 PM 815 Views
Indeed. snoopcester - 11/05/2010 09:20:27 PM 908 Views
The only hope for this coalition is a constitutional change Wibble - 11/05/2010 09:13:43 PM 840 Views
Possibly. Werthead - 11/05/2010 09:21:38 PM 828 Views
The new cabinet is starting to come together. Werthead - 11/05/2010 09:46:03 PM 813 Views
Plus Secretary for Scotland to the Lib Dems - imagine that. Legolas - 11/05/2010 09:50:11 PM 875 Views
It's a sop/peacemaker role, depending how you look at it. Werthead - 11/05/2010 09:54:02 PM 815 Views
It is a pat on the head. snoopcester - 11/05/2010 10:19:14 PM 700 Views
The Tory half is depressing already snoopcester - 11/05/2010 10:13:58 PM 768 Views
Defence is now updated to Fox according to Sky snoopcester - 11/05/2010 10:54:58 PM 711 Views
Yeah, just saw that coming through. Werthead - 11/05/2010 11:00:25 PM 865 Views
That one is a surprise to me, I expected Clegg to get it in some form snoopcester - 11/05/2010 11:06:36 PM 763 Views
They're back to talking about Gove as Home Secretary. Werthead - 12/05/2010 12:01:44 AM 783 Views
Heh, he has at least been barely caught up in the expenses scandal snoopcester - 12/05/2010 12:20:46 AM 793 Views
*Raises hand* LadyLorraine - 11/05/2010 10:00:22 PM 797 Views

How utterly delightful. LiterateDog - 11/05/2010 10:17:15 PM 787 Views

hes cute. *NM* Aisha - 12/05/2010 12:11:58 AM 531 Views
And now we have a new government. The LibDems have signed up wholeheartedly. Werthead - 12/05/2010 12:16:31 AM 767 Views
And I now think I can class myself as a former Lib Dem voter snoopcester - 12/05/2010 12:33:28 AM 716 Views
No mention of it so far. Werthead - 12/05/2010 12:42:10 AM 1029 Views
Indeed snoopcester - 12/05/2010 01:02:01 AM 782 Views
What would you have them do? Nebhead - 12/05/2010 09:32:57 AM 916 Views
There are more than two choices snoopcester - 12/05/2010 10:20:35 AM 868 Views
The only problem is that would mean returning a labour majority within 12 months Mark - 12/05/2010 11:36:47 AM 835 Views
Only if they met the Lib Dem price - true electoral reform snoopcester - 12/05/2010 12:30:26 PM 856 Views
They should have, since they didn't get enough important ministerial posts to compensate. Tim - 12/05/2010 01:42:07 PM 826 Views
Re: They should have, since they didn't get enough important ministerial posts to compensate. snoopcester - 12/05/2010 02:13:19 PM 851 Views
What about Northern Ireland? For the love of God, what about Northern Ireland?!?!?! *NM* Tom - 12/05/2010 05:00:37 AM 340 Views
What about it? Their parties won't be in the government. Legolas - 12/05/2010 10:27:50 AM 687 Views
Well some very interesting things happened Mark - 12/05/2010 11:45:36 AM 806 Views
That they did, but it's still largely symbolic. Legolas - 12/05/2010 01:03:31 PM 870 Views
Oh it's important to him Mark - 12/05/2010 03:00:54 PM 761 Views
I was constantly checking up on Fermanagh & South Tyrone during the recounts. Tim - 12/05/2010 01:16:50 PM 785 Views
There are no firm plans on how to deal with the north joining the republic Mark - 12/05/2010 03:19:52 PM 770 Views
I think what he means is that saying "Britain" instead of "the UK" technically excludes NI. *NM* Tim - 12/05/2010 01:06:56 PM 322 Views
Oh, right. Good point, then. *NM* Legolas - 12/05/2010 01:17:51 PM 323 Views
Exactly. *NM* Tom - 12/05/2010 08:07:06 PM 311 Views
Nick Clegg is the first ever Deputy PM without an actual ministerial role. Tim - 12/05/2010 01:22:49 PM 847 Views
Re: Nick Clegg is the first ever Deputy PM without an actual ministerial role. Yet snoopcester - 12/05/2010 01:41:12 PM 754 Views
Maybe. Tim - 12/05/2010 01:47:16 PM 776 Views
It would make a snappy title snoopcester - 12/05/2010 02:04:55 PM 667 Views
