Is this our new prime minister?

It seems that Clegg is getting into bed with Dave/David. Out with the New Labour/Old Tories, in with the New Old Tories propped up by the Lib Dem Tories. So shiny Clegg (rapidly tarnishing) can haggle for a top cabinet post and forget all that nonsense about not arming the Israelis and not being subservient to the US. I feel a "realistic" approach coming on. Up yours, Cleggalomaniacs. Here comes the new politics, just like the old politics.

One Green MP, no Nazis.

Even the public can see there's nothing new with the Lib Dems as shown by the number of seats. It was all media spin.

Yes, the media certainly went over the top on that story.

Marina Hyde sums it up nicely -
" ... Cleggbama, whose party had won a whole 1% more of the public vote than it did in 2005. Didn't the smallness of it feel so giggle-inducingly right? It was as if Britain's post-imperial decline into a piddling Cowellocracy had been condensed into a single piece of rolling news footage."

Cowellocracy - there's a spine-chilling proposition.
