El Cid Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Fit for government? Nearly 50% of LibDem ministers in this government have been kicked off the job. What a joke. And the alternative was Labour, and Gordon Brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I1L2T3 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 And the alternative was Labour, and Gordon Brown No it wasn't. The alternative was a Tory government but they bombed the biggest election open goal in history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnvqsos Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 The Liberal Dems are an amalgam of two previous parties,one of whom(SDP) was created to further the political careers of confused politicians such as Jenkins and Williams.the Liberal Party was never truly liberal in the twentieth century,and was emasculated by the expansion of the Labour Party.They can be defined only in terms of what they are not.

Stoatwobbler Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 i have just watched the news, the Lib Dems seem to have lost their way and are desperate to hang on to any sort of power, what do they actually stand for and have they lost any self respect http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-21715946 If you want to find out what the Liberal Democrats stand for, what they want to achieve in terms of government policy then your best hope would be to talk to an actual Liberal Democrat. Trouble is, they aren't as likely to speak up on here at the moment as coalition government has made them unpopular with a lot of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoatwobbler Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Dont most of us switch votes quite often? I have voted Liberal Democrat more than once, BNP, and Green, Labour once, but never Tory Some people stay fairly loyal to 1 party whose policies they agree with the most, and some even join that party and become activists. That's not the path for me personally, but others do have a strong preference for 1 party over all others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alchresearch Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I don't think the Lib Dems are as hated as some on here think or wish. After all, they did win Eastleigh last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truman Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I don't think the Lib Dems are as hated as some on here think or wish. After all, they did win Eastleigh last week. But with quite a drop in it's share of the vote.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glennis Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I heard a little on the radio today, and i am sure that it said he claimed that after the Eastleigh by election win, they were now a credible party to win outright at the next general election. He's kidding himself - as usual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
