Sleeping with the enemy

With talks between the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats entering their third day, new information from the BBC has revealed that senior Lib Dem MPs met with Labour politicians in secret. It begs the question as to what exactly Nick Clegg is up to. He's in a very difficult position; with the balance of power resting in his hands he's taking his time to figure what's best for him and his party - bugger the stability of our government and economic recovery! Clegg has an opportunity never given Continue reading [...]

Here comes the first of many pointless ramblings…

As the title of the site suggests, I'm not just here to provide political news and entertainment know-how...I'm also here to share my thoughts with you all.

I hope you're all on your toes Continue reading [...]
