Electoral reform

With every passing day, Nick Clegg is making the prospect of change to the electoral system less and less likely. The waiting and dithering and uncertainty of the last five days will linger in people's minds. Who wants to go through this every time we have an election? Why don't we have fixed five year terms with the first year being taken up by a three way political soap opera with the the least popular party assuming the greatest importance. This really is a load of nonsense and it is the British tax payer and the Brititsh economy which will be the loser by it. Last Thursday, David Cameron looked comparitively weak with just 306 seats. Thanks to the indecisiveness of the Liberals, David Cameron now carries the whip hand and will absolutely walk the next General lection. Remember, with all their committees and deference to the Unions, Labour won't have a formal recognised leader until almost Christmas anyway so there is nothing now standing in the way of the Conservatives. Ironically, theye are now better off for having faalen short in the Election. Clegg is the definitive child in the sweet shop. You can have chocolate or sweets. But you have to make a decision Nick! Otherwise you get neither...
