Thanks Mike S, and your quite right, there are more examples.

As I have commented before, the consequence of the first Osborne budget is that Government will be borrowing an extra £44 Billion over the next four years.

The rationale of the deficit plan was to erase the deficit within 5 years, that isn't going to happen, even in 2015, the Government will be projected to borrow £23 Billion.

My god I wish Vince would think before he opened his mouth. It's his eyebrows - they've burrowed into his prefrontal lobe.

Nick would do well to have the Nations favourite poem tattooed on his right arm, just to remind him whenever he gets depreesed 'to treat triumph and disaster .... the same'.
Its not the end of the world, yet Nick, and tomorrow is another day.

The Tories, on their own, failed to win the election.
The LibDems betrayed their voters and put the Tories into power.
Now Cable whines that the Tories are ruthless and calculating - better than being pathetic and stupid, like Clegg and his little band of cheats and crooks.

Don't be silly Vince. The Lib Dems are minor partners in the Coalition. If they don't like the way things are going, the Tories are perfectly entitled to tell the Lib Dems to go and jump in the lake. You can't have the tail wagging the dog. The Lib Dems are getting too big for their boots.

@nick Gibb
Labour/Lib Dems coalition would be worse considering it is currently two party coalition otherwise it would be a rainbow one where everyone will want a piece of the pie.

Vince is being Vince again... back stabbing, I would like to see the EXACT coalition agreement on paper just to see who is back stabbing who... Vince should go suck eggs old baffoon.

I doubt Lib Dem activists will topple Clegg. They do though, want to be able to make it clear they are stopping the Tories on many things.

One of the biggest problems is that they have no supporters in the media. If they had the level of media support that Labour and the Tories have, then it would probably be easier get across a clearer picture of what they're doing in government. Unforuntately the majority of people are just very ignorant about what they've done.

Stu, the coalition agreement is in the public domain and accessible by all who can be bothered to look it up.

What's the point here? I seriously doubt that Cable will quit over principle. If Clegg were to quit, where would he go in a demolished Lib Dem party?

Sam writes, 'Unforuntately the majority of people are just very ignorant about what they've done.'

The problem for them is that we know very well what they've done - from supporting the rise in tuition fees to voting for the NHS reforms at second reading. 'the bill was comfortably passed after 321 MPs voted for it and 235 voted against in its second reading.' How many of those 321 MPs were Lib Dems Sam?

Sam, The Lib Dems claim to be making the difference as you say, but the difference is negligible when set against other measures which more than cancel out their efforts. Taking people out of tax, for example, is as nothing to the extra money these same people will be paying in VAT. The pupil premium will have scarcely any impact compared to the damage done by widespread Sure Start closures or the withdrawal of EMA. I could go on, but you get the drift.

Where was Huhne's display of anger when the NHS reforms were passed? Why wasn't he banging his fist on the table at cabinet meetings when the university tuition fees were trebled?

The Lib Dem leaders can do as much political posturing and namecalling as they like, but it is too late. They have shown themselves to be painfully gullible in their relationship with the Tories. The aggressive attacks on Clegg, by the Tory funded "No Campaign, not only scuppered their plans for electoral reform but also contributed to their roasting in the council elections. It was obvious, from the start, that Cameron would have Clegg for breakfast. Now, the Lib Dems are in an intolerably weak position. They cannot put pressure on the Tories, over any policy decision. They are no longer necessary. If an election was called, Cameron would be in an excellent position to secure a majority. The Lib Dems are in disarray and Labour is still in the process of re-establishing its power base.

On a personal level, I do have a certain amount of sympathy for Clegg. However, politically, he has allowed himself and his party to be hung out to dry. Furthermore, those who voted Liberal, last May, were deceived. Many vulnerable ordinary people have seen their lives shattered by the Coalition policies.

We were never,"All in it together," and the Lib Dems are well and truly out of it.

If you Dance with Devil don't whinge if your dance partner betrays you.

The Lib. Dems. need to get real and pull the plug on the Tories to try to recover some kind of crediblity even if that means being wiped out otherwise they will never be trusted again and can only look forward to complete oblivion.

They have brought this upon themselves but can do something about it by boldly saying to the Tories that they've had enough of the treachery and pull out of the Coalition and let the Tories try to govern as a Minority Govt. or call a new General Election.

Vince was on BBC 24 Hours News programme this morning. The feeling amongst many of us is that when Vince is confronted by a pretty face he feels under an obligation to unburden himself - expose his very soul. Oliver Letwin is a blabbermouth by nature. He can't help himself. And him with a lawyer as a wife and a civil service employee to boot.
Back to Vince and his television interview.
Explaining his part in the coalition government, Vince observed - "Working FOR the Conservatives". That little preposition 'for' was quickly rectified by Vince. "Working WITH the Conservatives in government..'
You don't have to administer a 'truth' serum - just use a female interviewer. Sorry Jeremy, Andrew Neil, Max and such, with the exception of that other Andrew who blotted his copy book, however.

Super Injunction or Gagging Order? Or tongue excision performed under a local anaesthetic is not beyond question.
Can be painless.

Tattle Tale

Quite agree Matthew - as I said in my original post, I was only giving three examples and could have given many more. The Tories have thrown the Lib Dems a few figleaves to hide behind, but these can't conceal the net regressive nature of the attack being made on the living standards of the poorest in our society.

Their whole narrative is bogus.
