My thoughts: Although I'm not a Tory, & do not particularly like the Tories, I think that this is the only outcome which could have worked. We need a stable Government with a healthy majority in the House of Commons: the only way we can get that with this month's election results is for a coalition between the Tories & the Lib Dems. A "Rainbow Alliance" or "Progressive Coalition" simply could not have worked.
Assuming a deal, I'll be voting yes in the AV referendum, and will be hoping for some other decent concessions to the Lib Dems.
It will also be nice to see the back of New Labour's ID Card scheme & over Orwellian nonsense...
