Another Cons Loss-Leveson In Lords

Looks like the Lords backed Leveson press proposals tonight - yet another headache for Cameron to deal with now.... truly bad week for him. Can he hold it all together with fighting against the Lib Dems for the Eastleigh byelection as well?

  • Yes.

    really are you sure of that? 71% of those polled say the reason they wont vote tory is because they see the party as divided,and labour take a 15% lead in todays you guv poll the best for 11 years.
    daves all but finished,i`m just waiting to see who defects to ukip first from the tories,and if labour win the bye-election :j:j:j

    Sure that he will survive the problems the OP describes?

    Yes.

    As for labour, I'd LOVE labour to get in. May even vote for them myself, said it a few times on here.

    Reason being, I'd just like them, for once, to clean up their own mess. If Labour get in, they could come in at the most damaging time ever. The coalition were lucky, the Euro area has survived. I'm not sure it can survive another 5 years after 2015.

    If labour carry out what they preach now, they will be consigned to history for a couple of decades after. Which is good!

    Think the coalition are bungling? Stick Ed and Ed in charge.....

    Even labour themselves fear going into power with Milliband in charge. It will be carnage.
  • carnage? Use of desperate language won't change an all time high for Lab lead - their party are united and and their policy Plan B for the economy has been endorsed by the IMF and others - Ed Miliband has been publicly supported by his experienced colleagues in the media. (winning :) )
