[hackettov]

[OscarPlymouth]

@dadster1969

So you'd ignore the 23% of the country that voted for him, which together with the 36% which the Conservatives obtained....makes 59% of the electorate voted for one or other part of this Government!

[SirOneoneselfandone]

@OscarPlymouth sounds about right

[sugarraygras]

@OscarPlymouth You are right. But I wonder how many really considered what they were voting for was going to end in complete societal carnage by the time they are done. Clegg has to hold on as he is finished forever after. This will be worse than before.

[MultiPokemoncrater]

At last a saviour, Britain now can be great again- with the moral clarity and good vision of the conservative party and the fresh, new, and exiting lib dems i'm sure this country can be prosperous again.

[hammersfan09]

@dadster1969 but on number of votes it was much much closer hence why the electoral system right now is rubbish!!

[OscarPlymouth]

@newagemisfit

None - '1922' is a Conservative Party internal committee. They are not merging the parties, just operating as a Coalition Government.

There are not going to be any Conservatives on the LibDem Federal Executive either.

[newagemisfit]

@OscarPlymouth I was trying to make the point that there is bound to be covert partisan division. Which your respose appears to endorse.

[OscarPlymouth]

@newagemisfit

Quite probably....and long may it last. Surely it makes for better Government if more voices are heard within it?

[Sirus362]

Iv got no interest in Politics whatsoever.

Whatever the public think of these two theres no way on gods green earth they can make matters worse. It can only be an improvement. Good luck to them thats what i say.

[Sirus362]

@carltonwagon Very true. If petrol gets any more expensive il be cycling to work i wont be laughing then ...20mile round trip.

[Bryndles79]

Why is everyone talking about the Blair era like it was some golden age? :S

[chrisjoneschrisjones]

comedy gold

[alwaysoutnumber4d]

for some reason i get a really good feeling about these two. With the tories ideas about cuts and the economy and the the lib dems more progressive tax plans and such i really think there a good combo. The media seem to be skeptical about how all this will end and i do agree that the lib dems could suffer in some ways but overall if it works out that this really could mark the begining to a new era of british politics.

[jaws0222]

@alwaysoutnumber4d shame Cameron is a slimy bastard

[DracoSlashHarry]

lmao.

[apsr90]

Same here..watched it live..Couldn't stop laughing.

[swanseajackthe3rd]

I watched this live and found it genuinely funny. I laughed for ages afterwards. It seems that after 3 years of Brown glowering over the lectern we've forgotten that blair used to have similar light hearted moments.

[OscarPlymouth]

@swanseajackthe3rd Indeed, all the Journalists came away from the Press Conference amazed at how well it had gone. It was back to some of the banter that happened in the Blair era when the briefings began.

[dvcougar]

If you could post the whole press conference it would be most appreciated. Thank you!

[OscarPlymouth]

@dvcougar

Unfortunately I didn't record the whole press conference, but I'm sure it's on BBC iPlayer now.

[dvcougar]

@OscarPlymouth I will check out the BBC iPlayer - thank you.

[ultimateprosecutor]

Thanks for posting this so quickly.

Scary to think these modern day Morcambe and Wise will be running the country.

[OscarPlymouth]

@ultimateprosecutor

'Morecambe & Wise' they certainly are not, but at least they seem to get on, which is more can be said about the relationship between Blair & Brown (and they were in the same party!)
