This is a spoof, right? Or it’s written by a gullible 9 year old?

Liberal Democrats are Tories by another name.

But so was New Labour with its NHS privatisation and, let’s not forget, Brown went into the 2010 general election promising cuts (i.e. austerity) “worse than Thatcher”.

Forget the ‘Peoples Vote’ nonsense. Why on earth would anyone want to remain with the neoliberal status quo? Instead, go for a radical alternative. And remember, the pro-market EU Commission and EU Court will always block any move towards a ‘people first’ solution or even a Green New Deal.

NO. They not only threw out all their values for a pile of potage known as the Tory/Lib coalition back in 2010 (halcyon days weren’t they.Not) But historically don’t they always do the same. ‘What about these values. Dump ’em and we could have a go at Power’. And don’t get me started on the manoeuvring and the lies that went on with the Libs after The Labour Party decided that they could go it alone without the help of the Liberals. Some of us have very long memories where the Lib Dems are concerned!

Why ask the question? Clegg said the LD’s would not allow the deficit to be dealt with on the backs of working people – we got 5 years of severe austerity. He also made promises on tuition fees which generated a pop song when the promise was comprehensively broken. The Lib Dems enthusiastically supped with the Tory devil with a short spoon and it was not long before they were wearing Tory clothes and sleeping at the foot of the Tory bed. Swinson enthusiastically embraced her Tory contrived role. Party hopping Umunna will fit well in the Lib Dems!

The 2010 coalition government with the Tories is a good place to start. – “You will know them by their fruits.”

From my old Labour campaigning days the Liberals were always underhand and dirty. Say anything and do anything for attention and publicity. When they got a councillor elected they were usually lazy and useless. As we saw back in 2010 when they got into power they just morphed into Tories for 5 years.
