This is a question Broken Promises

Thebigfella tugs our coat and says: Are you a LibDem minister, a cheating partner, or maybe you have an annoying friend you can't be bothered with? Tell us of promises you've broken, or if you've been on the receiving end.

^That
Mostly agree. The Holy Grail for the Lib-Dems is voting reform. BUT - they should have demanded that voting reform goes through BEFORE voting for measures that make then look like promise-breaking cunts. They could put a caveat on the bill - voting-reform doesn't come into effect until 2012. Or similar.

But until they've got that on the statute books they should be telling Cameron to act like a duck.

Stick his tuition-fees bill up his arse.

Agreed
The Voting Reform bill will just mean that the Lib Dems end up with the same number of MPs - increasing their number by AV or whatever but then getting wiped out at the next election. Someone may have even crunched the numbers and realised that if the Bill goes through and the Lib Dems lose 50% (say) of their vote, it would still leave them with 2 or 3 MPs less overall and they can then begin the long road to building their voting base back up.
