Labservative
 

Quite a cool website this one, just to say in advance it is Lib Dem produced :)

Quite an amusing site.

However, the Lib Dems are being a little economical with the truth, as the Labservative seven point manifesto includes :-

a) We promise to saddle students with debt for their university education.
b) We promise to protect corrupt MPs from public accountability.
c) We promise to accept funding from Unions and Big Business in exchange for political influence.

By which we are, I assume, to believe that the Lib Dems would do none of these things?

a) Their policy (well, Clegg's, and he's the leader) is to phase tuition fees out over six years - wouldn't that still be saddling students with debt for six years after the election?
b) I thought that the Liberal MPs John Barrett, Sir Alan Beith, Sir Menzies Campbell, Sandra Gidley, Paul Holmes and Richard Younger-Ross all had to pay back money in the expense farrago? Let's not mention Lembit and his £2.5k TV (which got knocked back, so he bought himself a £750 one), and the rest.....
c) Best not mention Chris Nicholson, Prospective Liberal Candidate for Streatham, Sudhir Choudhrie, Michael Brown, Paul Strasburger, Paul Marshall, Alpha Healthcare et al, then?

A little hypocritical, imho.

There's a rumour going around that this site would've been up and running months earlier but they couldn't agree on a name.

After much consultation and a succession of votes and elemination contests, the various contenders for the title were rejected until only two remained - Labservative and Conservabour with roughly equal votes. After much deliberation the Lib Dem leadership then announced that they'd go with Labservative but reserved the right to change their mind and transfer their support to Conservabour at any time.... :D
