I have a good friend who's a Lib Dem councillor. they suspect the only way this 'blue wall' is going to come down is with Lib Dem voters repeatedly banging their heads against it at the vacuousness of their own party! Their party conference is going on at the minute. An inordinate amount of time has been geared towards changing the order of sentences in the constitution. Not changing the actual words, just the order they come in. It's such cutting edge debate that's kept the Lib Dems so relevant these past few years 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted July 6 Report Share Posted July 6 I admire how he copes with his domestic situation, but if I ever spoke to him, I think I would need a lie detector strapped to his arm, judging by his performance at the Horizon inquiry.

Student fees have currently been held since 2017 and are unsustainable for some Universities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janner Posted July 17 Report Share Posted July 17 Clegg was a slimey little $#!+ and took the usually gullible libs in bigtime, now he's slithered his way to be president of global affairs with meta, A horrible public school **** whos deal with cameron did far worse than making tarquin and jemimah's parents pay extra uni fees, Without his upper class self serving input austerity would not have happened and the broken Britain that he and his tory bedfellows created wouldnt have every public service on its knees, The blokes a self-entitled two faced #### Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, he’s still an utter space cadet. But whoever was advising the Lib Dems which seats to target at the election definitely deserves his Christmas bonus. Mind you, the Lib Dem's enthusiasm for proportional representation seems to have waned somewhat. Funny that. 16 minutes ago, janner said: Clegg was a slimey little $#!+ and took the usually gullible libs in bigtime, now he's slithered his way to be president of global affairs with meta, Am with you on the horrendous damage Clegg did, but for different reasons. Frankly he doesn’t get anywhere near the criticism he deserves for having, amongst other things, done more to damage the trust in British politicians in living memory than anyone else. It’s not just his tuition fee about-face, but people often forget just what he sold his soul for, namely a referendum on AV. Then, when he was finally booted from office, he spent his every waking moment doing…what? Oh yes, undermining the UK government’s Brexit negotiations by holding, quite openly, talks with the EU team. The irony clearly being lost on him, that in most other EU member states, that would have earned him prison time. Occasionally, he crawls out from whatever rock he’s under to defend Meta’s latest indiscretion/cover up. Frankly, the position of corporate lightening rod suits him.
