I agree. I have come to dislike coalition government intensely. We need a single party in charge, which can then be judged by voters on the basis of its performance against its published manifesto, rather than a murky, flexible agreement thrashed out in the cabinet office broom cupboard.

As for voter apathy, well I'm afraid so much day-to-day stuff is now surrendered to Brussels there is no immediate solution to voter apathy. The cry of "they're all the bleeding same" has a resonance to it, not because it is true, but because whoever is in charge, a large percentage of decisions affecting us simply aren't made in Westminster any more.
