Looks like Labour are playing all their big cards, referendum on PR and Brown ready to step down.

    Don't worry, if the LD make a pact with the devil, he'll soon find a way to stay in power.

    Having surrounded himself with mediocre 'yes men', there is no one there who can be a convincing leader of labour.

    Do you think this will pave the way for a Lib Dem / Labour deal or is Clegg stringing them along and when he gets what he wants, he'll dump them anyway?
