There is no real difference between the 'liberal democrats' of the UK (who, like every other party which tagged 'democrat' to their name ~100 years ago was doing so to differentiate themselves from the Totalitarian Left, like 'hey, it's OK, we're not like Lenin, even though we believe a lot of the same things'. Remember that context when you see 'democrat' in a party name), and the leftist Labor party, and they will together form a leftist government.
They are acting now as if they might help the Conservatives into power: they will NOT. They benefit from acting as if they cover some kind of middle ground but do not.
David Cameron is the biggest fool for acting as if it is possible, and has probably helped the liberals considerably in the next election.

There’ll Always Be an England.
Until they commit suicide by socialism. RIP, England. You were a great country in your day.
Before the election, the head of the Bank of England said that the economic mess was so bad that whoever became the next Prime Minister and tried to deal with it would become so unpopular that his party would be out of business for a generation.
Snicker. Ignorance is not a virtue.
Get a clear view of these people & how they operate. Britain is screwed.
Actually, there's a whole bunch of bad actors we need a clear view of and the less hyperventilating the clearer the view. You, for example, sound like you cannot handle your coffee and should stick to a nice tall can of pop :).
It looks a lot like hard right, and since that’s how they describe us on wikipedia, I think it’s a dumb nick.
Calling ‘ignorant’ on not knowing some random piece of nordic trivia is a pathetic escalation. You come stomping onto my thread with your jackboots & then get personal when I respond. You need to learn a lot about posting here before you post any more.
“the head of the Bank of England said that the economic mess was so bad”
If that’s the case, then why couldn’t they see it coming before the end of 09, just as they should have in America?
Not at all, chuckie. I'm simply even more unimpressed with your sourcing skills.
Btw, are you the flake who's trying to sell "ubama.org" for 15.000 bucks? If so, I'm sort of unimpressed with your reasoning skills too :)).
Cameron is against amnesty for illegal immigrants.
Cameron also has the guts to say he is for immediate cuts in social services. He said this in a televised debate no less. That makes Cameron more Conservative than 80% of the members of Congress in my book.
Cameron is cherry picking the issues that the Left are willing to bite at.
If the UK is finished with Cameron, then what does that say about us, Obama and the Dems.
The only mode I am in, is seeing history repeating itself in Europe, but this time you have a Winston Churchill type (Cameron) and a FDR ala Khrushchev type (Obama) banging his shoe at the U.S.
“a Winston Churchill type (Cameron)”
you jest!!
No I don’t.
But you do with your comments on Cameron and the fall of the British Empire.
Tell me something, how many international treaties were done under Thatcher that got us to where we are today.
And when Reagan became president what issues did he work with the Democrats on.
And how many parties did Winston Churchill belong to.
“the fall of the British Empire”
That would be past tense. Very past tense. It’s finished. Finito. Gone. I wish it weren’t so, but it is.
The fact that the British can’t see that fact is a reason for it. Too rich & busy to see themselves dying in the gutter.
And Cameron is no Churchill. LOL.
“..Stop basing your worldview on hope. Get a clear view of these people & how they operate. Britain is screwed.”
Then this thread and the above statement made by you is all for naught and a waste of time..
How is it that Britian is screwed now; since they have been in effect (the fall of the British Empire) screwed in a past tense and I might add even “screwed” under Thatcher...
Moreover, you never answered the question on Churchill, how many parties did he belong to?
It’s a rhetorical question for me, but I would like to hear the answer from you.
My bet is you complaineth too much...
As has been said, this could be a good election to lose
