Well the alternative vote referendum and local elections are over. As predicted the Lib Dems lost heavily in local elections and to add salt to Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg's gaping political wounds the Alternative vote system was rejected. I personally was in favour of an alternative voting system instead of our current first past the post system but it seems many weren't, or were actually in fact ignorant to it, just putting a no down as they didn't really understand it. We are very much a nation that doesn't embrace change well at times.
Clegg, once a king maker now seems unhappy with his lot, so does Vince Cable who attacked the Tories bitterly this week. So could Clegg & Co have a hand in future Tory policy blocking or even demise or will the Tories remain in power with subservient coalition partners?
