Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Britain has a new Prime Minister Werthead - 11/05/2010 08:12:50 PM 1018 Views
Oh, right, I had totally forgotten that... Legolas - 11/05/2010 08:14:31 PM 753 Views
Nope. The Tories can form a minority government and risk the danger of collapsing. Werthead - 11/05/2010 08:18:31 PM 750 Views
That is what is being reported. From the Guardian quoting an unnamed Lib Dem MP snoopcester - 11/05/2010 08:30:52 PM 796 Views
But at the price of PR, no doubt. Legolas - 11/05/2010 08:32:02 PM 749 Views
Maybe not. Werthead - 11/05/2010 08:41:24 PM 802 Views
Not much of a price, I suspect snoopcester - 11/05/2010 08:49:38 PM 762 Views
That is the biggest danger to the LibDems. Werthead - 11/05/2010 09:10:09 PM 731 Views
Indeed. snoopcester - 11/05/2010 09:20:27 PM 836 Views
The only hope for this coalition is a constitutional change Wibble - 11/05/2010 09:13:43 PM 753 Views
Possibly. Werthead - 11/05/2010 09:21:38 PM 740 Views
The new cabinet is starting to come together. Werthead - 11/05/2010 09:46:03 PM 738 Views
Plus Secretary for Scotland to the Lib Dems - imagine that. Legolas - 11/05/2010 09:50:11 PM 809 Views
It's a sop/peacemaker role, depending how you look at it. Werthead - 11/05/2010 09:54:02 PM 729 Views
It is a pat on the head. snoopcester - 11/05/2010 10:19:14 PM 628 Views
The Tory half is depressing already snoopcester - 11/05/2010 10:13:58 PM 691 Views
Defence is now updated to Fox according to Sky snoopcester - 11/05/2010 10:54:58 PM 635 Views
Yeah, just saw that coming through. Werthead - 11/05/2010 11:00:25 PM 784 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 683 Views
They're back to talking about Gove as Home Secretary. Werthead - 12/05/2010 12:01:44 AM 705 Views
Heh, he has at least been barely caught up in the expenses scandal snoopcester - 12/05/2010 12:20:46 AM 711 Views
*Raises hand* LadyLorraine - 11/05/2010 10:00:22 PM 712 Views
Tories = Conservatives Werthead - 11/05/2010 10:06:35 PM 717 Views

When will you realise that I am always right? Druid - 12/05/2010 02:12:04 AM 729 Views
Re: When will you realise that I am always right? Camilla - 12/05/2010 09:14:07 AM 605 Views
How utterly delightful. LiterateDog - 11/05/2010 10:17:15 PM 709 Views
it does make for fine entertainment *NM* damookster - 12/05/2010 04:39:50 AM 411 Views
Indeed it does *NM* AgentOrange - 12/05/2010 01:34:45 PM 302 Views
Re: How utterly delightful. Balwer - 13/05/2010 12:03:08 PM 585 Views
If you want to smile some more, The Shrike - 13/05/2010 07:10:46 PM 630 Views
hes cute. *NM* Aisha - 12/05/2010 12:11:58 AM 492 Views
And now we have a new government. The LibDems have signed up wholeheartedly. Werthead - 12/05/2010 12:16:31 AM 680 Views
And I now think I can class myself as a former Lib Dem voter snoopcester - 12/05/2010 12:33:28 AM 633 Views
No mention of it so far. Werthead - 12/05/2010 12:42:10 AM 945 Views
Indeed snoopcester - 12/05/2010 01:02:01 AM 705 Views
What would you have them do? Nebhead - 12/05/2010 09:32:57 AM 832 Views
There are more than two choices snoopcester - 12/05/2010 10:20:35 AM 787 Views
The only problem is that would mean returning a labour majority within 12 months Mark - 12/05/2010 11:36:47 AM 745 Views
Only if they met the Lib Dem price - true electoral reform snoopcester - 12/05/2010 12:30:26 PM 770 Views
They should have, since they didn't get enough important ministerial posts to compensate. Tim - 12/05/2010 01:42:07 PM 740 Views
Re: They should have, since they didn't get enough important ministerial posts to compensate. snoopcester - 12/05/2010 02:13:19 PM 757 Views
What about Northern Ireland? For the love of God, what about Northern Ireland?!?!?! *NM* Tom - 12/05/2010 05:00:37 AM 306 Views
What about it? Their parties won't be in the government. Legolas - 12/05/2010 10:27:50 AM 610 Views
Well some very interesting things happened Mark - 12/05/2010 11:45:36 AM 728 Views
That they did, but it's still largely symbolic. Legolas - 12/05/2010 01:03:31 PM 789 Views
Oh it's important to him Mark - 12/05/2010 03:00:54 PM 680 Views
I was constantly checking up on Fermanagh & South Tyrone during the recounts. Tim - 12/05/2010 01:16:50 PM 702 Views
There are no firm plans on how to deal with the north joining the republic Mark - 12/05/2010 03:19:52 PM 692 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 286 Views
Oh, right. Good point, then. *NM* Legolas - 12/05/2010 01:17:51 PM 288 Views
Exactly. *NM* Tom - 12/05/2010 08:07:06 PM 276 Views
Nick Clegg is the first ever Deputy PM without an actual ministerial role. Tim - 12/05/2010 01:22:49 PM 766 Views
Re: Nick Clegg is the first ever Deputy PM without an actual ministerial role. Yet snoopcester - 12/05/2010 01:41:12 PM 666 Views
Maybe. Tim - 12/05/2010 01:47:16 PM 697 Views
It would make a snappy title snoopcester - 12/05/2010 02:04:55 PM 582 Views
Well, he's now Lord President of the Council. Tim - 12/05/2010 08:05:33 PM 783 Views
