With all it's years of experience Labour still ran the country into the ground.Quote:

It would be like Liverpool football club ousting Benitez and giving the job to a Radio 5 Live listener who made a lot of good points during a phone in segment.
The Lib Dems are relatively sound ideologically. Far from ideal, but out of the 3 options are probably the most in tune with my sensibilites. Though I think the amnesty for all illegal immigrants is a bit stupid and sends the wrong message.
That's rubbish, literally hundreds of Conservative party members would have worked and served in the old Tory govornment. Meanwhile there isn't a Lib Dem alive who has any experience of even serving as part of the opposition!
Politics both domestically and internationally is very much an old boys network and the Lib Dems aren't part of the club. They would have no respect, no crediblity and most tellingly no clue.
