Look at it another way - How would Tory supporters feel if DC were in talks with NC before the results were known. Then throw in to that scenario the corresponding reaction from Labour.  |
They don't have to name which side they'll support, they just have to be honest and open about the process they'll go through to decide. Will they support the side which wins most votes in line with basic PR principles and if not why not? That shouldn't be too difficult and if they have an argument for not doing that then let us hear it. As yet all I've heard from them on this subject is meaningless drivel....
