A guess this is a kick in the teeth for tactical voting. Vote for a person you WANT people, not against a person you're against. You won't feel so hard done by when two parties make a deal to form a government.
Anyway, the time for being partisan is over. Cameron and Clegg are in government. End of. Stop remembering what Thatcher did in the 80s. Learn from history don't relive it. Otherwise we'd still be fighting the Germans in WWII and bombs would still be exploding regularly in Ulster with recriminations on both sides.
In these circumstances, you can't judge Cameron on Thatchers record. He doesn't have the votes to act in that kind of way and the LibDems won't just roll over and give him everything he wants. It's very easy to see the glass as half empty, but it's time to judge this coalition government on its actions it takes and the laws it passes. You may end up thinking that politics should always have been done this way and it works better.
