I already don't like this new Prime Minister.

Cameron hasn't confirmed a coalition. He said it is his aim to have a coalition. It still requires LD agreement...

I actually liked his speech. "A proper & full coalition...put aside party differences for the common good & the national interest..."

I heard before the election they were thinking of changing chancellor to Ken Clarke as he served as chancellor after the last recession in the early 90s. during his spell he managed to halve the budget deficit while at the same time reducing inflation, unemployment and the basic rate of tax from 25p to 23p.

LOL

Osborne confirmed as chancellor

Could this be a new era of Brand New Politics? Let's hope so. I did like some of the Lib Dems policies.

Telegraph commentator Toby Young tweets: If constitution allowed Brown to resign without a deal in place between Cons and LDs, couldn't he have gone three days ago?

I wish he'd gone 3 years ago..

Want to know the deal darn it!

Fixed four year terms. No cut in Inheritance tax or Marriage tax but tax free allowance raised.

Allow we know so far.

Vincent Cable will be chief secretary to the Treasury, David Laws will be education secretary, Andrew Lansley will be health secretary and William Hague will be foreign secretary.

David Laws seem depressed and, in answer to the collation, that there were many ways to do that. Eeeeek.

Clegg will be Deputy PM - that way he can share both the kudos and the blame...

Ashdown as Defense security. If true? Immense!!
Clegg as Deputy PM? Huge Success for him if true!

Yes, meaningful appointments that show that they want the new alliance to work and last.

Ashdown will be a huge boost to the cabinet if you ask me!
