It is what the Lib Dems want though so if it happens expect a split and an election shortly after.

Re: The New British Government: David Cameron is Prime Minister
Anyone see the irony of the 'hooray' option in the poll being labour red?

And the Tories have already said that the absolute furthest they would go is a referendum on AV, not PR.
The Tories would never go for PR. I think offering AV would have been hard enough for them to swallow.

I beg to differ - there may have to be some difficult decisions made, as the books have to balanced, but Cameron is a consensus politician (much to the disgust of some the more right-wing members of the Tory Party).
But I am sure you won't let facts spoil your prejudices.....

Agreement has been made but not signed off. Inheritance tax and marriage tax breaks are on hold. Whereas the tax-free allowance raised to £10,000 will be the 'priority'. Source: BBC

I'm not even sure I want Conservative in. I only voted for them to get rid of Gordon.

That would only help if the Tory candidate actually won the seat from the Labour candidate, if this did not happen then your vote made no difference.

The trouble is that the tories have already broken the election promises, and thay ain't even been in office 20 mins, as they will have had to make changes to get support of the Lib Dems
