The Hopeful thing that could happen

I wasn't suggesting that literally, what I meant is that it seems likely that as time goes on Clegg and the Lib Dems will be relegated to the political wilderness (as Trotsky was) due to the deep and fundamental ideological differences that Lib Dems have with the Tories.

Clegg has condemned the Lib-Dems to at least 20+ years in the political wilderness by getting into bed with the chinless wonders from Eton.

Fun facts about the UK's new government:

• There are 23 millionaires on the conservative benches
• The old-boys-network is in ascendancy; MPs who are former pupils of Eaton has increased from fifteen to twenty.
