If Clegg disagrees with so many Tory policies why is he in a coalition with them ?

Ego ?. Yes thats about it.

NC had the chance of being 'deputy PM' as he demanded for his alliance - he didn't like GB - so DC was the chosen one. And he knew 'that chance' ...will never-ever come again - 'him' getting his name in the history books.!!

Once 'in'....criticise and be a nuisance all the time - NC being made to back-track time and time again - as the political might of DC descends upon him for his outbursts.

If NC had been 'more supportive' of DC - he may have been seen in a better light in his own right - but now NC/Lib-Dems are seen as a disruptive political party heading for 'another' 90yrs in the political wilderness - they 'blew' their chances of ever being taken 'seriously' in politics by the majority of voters.

He knows that as soon as the coalition ends that the lib dems will disappear,simply because their polices are so unpopular with the majority of the electorate, "human rights" mass immigration and so on

Because Big Dave needed someone to handle the tea and biscuits at cabinet meetings.

He is contributing nothing but there for the ride and the title of No.2 do-nothing.

because he has no b@lls & did a complete U Turn about many things and now he will live to regret it as nobody will vote for him in the next election....he let his voters down & we will not forget!
