Why has the collusion between Conservatives and Liberal Democrats to win the Electiion not been reported on adequately?

Why was the statement on the Andrew Neil Election Special on Wednesday, when a Liberal Democrat spoke about the Conservatives asking the LD's not to vote for their own Party but vote for them instead and by way of a letter. I have not heard this reported from any other source and yet if true, and the Conservative vote was propped up by the LD's then the so called success of the result would be found to have been more of a tactical vote desperate attempt not to lose face. I feel sorry for the LD Candidate.

    I used to be a very active LD and had been for many years. I had high hopes for the collusion. However, it has been a disaster. All that has happened is that the Torys have laughed all the way through. Every promise given by the Torys to lure us into the trap of collusion were broken. We fell for it again:

    David Loyd George was stitched up by them in 1922

    and every time since.

    It will take years my be even decades to recover.

    As for UKIP, they are a massive threat because they are prepared to destroy the country

    How is this any different to every other election, when individuals of all parties go around saying "you may not like me, but unless you vote for me someone you like even less will win" - it hasn't been reported on because it happens at every election, everywhere, and with every party and is standard election tactics. To most people it would be as much of a shock as reporting that the sky is blue.

    I think that LibDems were making tactical votes as they knew that UKIp would get many votes.

    Progressives on the far left and the far right are exactly the same with the exception of religion. Both want big government, behavior control and a police state, Both are globalists.

    The motives are not the same but the methods are exactly the same.
