election happens

but you just had an election

how can you have another election if like literally a day after you seat your parliment, you have a vote of no confidence

and what if that poo poo keeps happening? what if nobody gets a majority, ever, and theres always votes of no confidence?

this is why you need fixed date elections, a President, and an upper house to ratify lower house bills. That way the lower house has to live with each other, even when they dont wanna

Whats the point of the LibDem party anyways? If you want England strong against foreign threats, you vote Con. If you want England to have economic growth in a manner which doesn't upset anybody, you vote Labour. If you want England to rule britannica, you vote UKIP. If you're Scottish, you vote SNP. If you want to vote for failures to make yourself feel better, you vote Green. In that environment, I just don't see what LibDema offer that someone else don't already do better.

I'd really find it funny if Nick Clegg takes the remaining LibDems loyal to him and joins the Conservatives. A man's unbridled ambition, resulting in the dissillusion of his party.

Far better to coalition with Labour for an election, than it is to serve as the bitch for a politically competent party.
