The Tory voters are silent Tory voters this election even on the fretboard. 

Rest assured they they will turn out in force tomorrow and kick Corbyn in the hedge where he belongs.

ADMIN: Edited out, Rule #1

Why would I do that you big purple helmet ?

Although to be fair Blair's first term was good, and the Lib Dems had little choice but to go with the Tories when they won more seats than Labour.

I seriously disagree, I think the Libs sold their soul, and should have gone with Labour. They are still paying for it, as I knew they would the day Clegg walked out as deputy PM on that sunny day

They had little choice but to support the Tories. The Tories were the largest party - both in votes and seats - the public wouldn't have accepted the Lib Dems propping up a discredited Labour government who it was widely seen has having been voted out, and Brown wouldn't step down as PM (the Lib Dems' first condition).

It is true that they could have forced the Tories to try to govern as a minority and supported them on a case-by-case basis, rather than entering a coalition. Whether that would have been better than trying to restrain the Tories from the inside of a coalition, I don't know - since that failed too.

I agree that it has destroyed the Lib Dems for a generation at least though.

What Cleggy should have done was a supply and support deal. But no, the lure of power was too great so off he went on bender throwing out his Lib Dem principles and showing why small parties should never be in a debate with Labour and the Tories on TV. The advertising standards people should have been able to prosecute him for misleading advertising, lying and worse. A pompous, odious grasping politician who sneers at anyone he disagrees with. I hope he loses his seat. I have decided I dislike him more than Cameron. My sister-in-law met him and immediately disliked him. She said he was arrogant.

he loved being Cameron's wing man
Cameron was less annoying

I hope Clegg doesn't haunt us for 30 years in the Lord's. Not sure if they can add any more Lib Lords now - they are over-quota in the Lord's by a large factor now, aren't they?
Can't he do documentaries or just clear off?

Love how Labour supporters are in total denial about their party's past performance !

and their Leaders past associations......

A complete shower of shit and the front bench this time round is the worst in living memory and still you are confident about putting them in power. 

Delluded if you believe Corbyns pipe dreams can come true.

It's you who are in denial. The historical figures prove conclusively that the Tories are the party which borrows more, repays less, and causes more recessions.

Future performance is open to debate, past performance is a matter of record.

The crippling mess is always substantially worse under Labour 

capo4th

The Torys always have to borrow more to fix the Labour mess they always leave behind.

This cycle will repeat if we have a Labour government on Friday. 2022 big disaster to clean up and billions wasted.

One, yes - Wilson's first government. The other was before even my time - Attlee's government. A long time ago, certainly - although the last to run a surplus was Blair's, in his first term.

The point is that regardless of how long ago or not, you're simply factually wrong about the past economic performance of the two parties. You can argue about whether that will apply in the future if you like… but I see no reason to inherently doubt it without providing some more sound reasoning than you have so far .

We are in a different millennium now though ICBM and Labours policies dictate that they will bankrupt society as we know it.
