And now people realise voting Lib Dem has consequences (well maybe not any more) and the biggest consequence is whether you get a Labour or Tory government.

Now screw the system party is UKIP I'm not sure the Lib Dem's have any role unless the Labour party decides to self destruct which is a definite possibility

Of course you don't. He's a liberal.

How is voting for a religious exemption from anti-discrimination legislation and against civil equality for LGBT people a true liberal virtue?

Is that a deafening silence

No, it's you ignoring my response:

You must have me confused with a Labour shill.

No chance of that. A Tory one, maybe.

I dunno. I can't think of anybody who has done more to discredit and marginalise the yellow tory party.

I'm certainly not confused about what you are. The repeated libels against those valiant heroes protecting the hard-won liberties we enjoy in this country demonstrates it on a daily basis.

Yeah, bill!



That's you told.

Which libels? I'm fully supportive of Trades Unions and what they have achieved for the Working Class, and for which many have paid with their lives & liberty.

Ah yes, who can forget the trade unions holding King John to account at Runnymede, or a young Bob Crow being the driving force behind the Great Reform Act of 1832.

Oh, right. Barons as valiant heroes. Got it. You're just so liberal.

Who can forget the romance of Nick Clegg snogging David Cameron in the rose garden and their honeymoon on safari machine-gunning the poor and the sick.

Probably the worst thing the libdems did was enable the Tories "reorganisation" of the English NHS, after even the Tory manifesto in 2010 said no top down reorganisation. I dont remember being more sad last Parliament than watching the once principled Shirley Williams credibility draining away on a performance on Question Time, long after all libdems knew exactly what was involved in the reorganisation. She insisted,Blair-like, that people should trust her and her party and they would absolutely get the bill changed. Hah. Like the bedroom tax, enabling the Tories to do something terrible, while insisting they had tempered their worst excesses. Doesn't excuse being complicit in not-the-worst-but-still-shite excesses..

And now you have Tim Farron who, with a complete lack of self-awareness, smears the SNP as isolationsists and the "worst and darkest things that people suspect nationalists to be in favour of".

What a fucking disgrace of a man.

What a disgrace of a former party.

Just pointing out that of our hard-won freedoms, trade unions are responsible for fuck all of them.

Difficult to forget something that didn't happen. Perhaps you are confusing your homoerotic fantasies with real life? Hey, if your nationalism is rooted in myth, why not everything else.

Don't hold your breath waiting for any Lib Dem to apologise for improving the NHS. Or, indeed, improving literally everything else.

So, the SNP are making non-Scots second class citizens, deporting some, rounding others up and sending them to concentration camps. Farrow is right; SNP are in favour of those worst things we fear of nationalists. Good job he told us. Telling the truth like that, it's the liberal thing to do.

LibDems responsible for improving the NHS? Shome mishtake, shurely.

It's all true! I can't keep up this pretense any longer! *breaks down in tears*

That Tim Farrow he's like some sort of Liberal Jeremy Kyle, fighting the good fight, righting wrongs, making shit up for publicity.

Inexcusable and inexplicably stupid.
