Re: To AV, or not to AV?
I have to be honest if there were an election next week i think the lib dems would be pretty much wiped out and labour wouldn't get near to government again. People might be willing to give labour a chance locally though i am not totally convinced thats the case despite the results last week but the chances that people have completely forgotten the mess labour made and left us in nationally is minimal.
Add in that apart from throwing a lot of muck about labour has come out with virtually no real world solutions to the problems we face and i think as much as people might hate the cuts they would vote tory and david cameron would be returned with a majority in the commons. People may well hate the cuts but they also know why they are happening, they know they have to happen and they do remember who caused all this.
If i were DC right now i think i would push the coalition to breaking point see how much of a spine nick clegg has and go to the country again if needs be. Sorry but his tough talk aside i think right now clegg knows he is in no real position to push his luck or that of his party and when push comes to shove he'll do what he has done from the start make a lot of noise but go along with it.
