Get On With It!

.
So Gordon Brown has finally announced his resignation, and the country waits with bated breath to see which of the parties the Lib-Dems will get into bed with - and for how long such a relationship will last.

I suppose you can’t blame the Lib-Dems for trying to get the best deal for their party, but I do wish they’d speed things up. This interim period of ‘will they, won’t they’ is driving the nation crazy.

What I’d like to know is: was Gordon pushed, and do we really have to put up with him for another four months?

The one person that came out of yesterday’s political toing and froing with honour was David Cameron who offered Nick Clegg a referendum on proportional representation. Now we learn that Clegg could be dancing with Labour on Gordon Brown’s cynical promise of electoral reform legislation.

The Lib-Dems got a quarter of the votes; thus, three-quarters of the electorate don’t have views on electoral reform. Why then should we be subjected to legislation on it without first a referendum on the issue?
