Starting to make sense, no way will the LibDems want Georgie and the Tories won't allow a LibDem to have their mits on the purse strings, what a perfect short term compromise, now 2.9 on Betfair I may just have a flutter.

I can see the start of a beutiful friendship.
I am hoping the libs get Dave to axe Trident and replace it with an airforce provided alternative. 100 bill in savings straight away.0 -
Looks like Georgie will get the job, odds on him now 1.05, has anything being announced.'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.
