Cleggy Logic

The Independent is trailing the 'demands', four in all, that young Cleggy is making as a condition of support should a hung parliament ensue from the forthcoming general election.

Of the three, one is intriguing and that is: what does "a switch to a greener economy less dependent on financial services" actually mean?

Interesting that the LibDems have 'Nick(ed)' another long-standing policy of the UK Independence Party with their wish to raise the tax threshold to £10,000!

As to Cleggy's idea for a change in the voting system - which would presumably have some element of PR involved - the last election held in Britain, using a system other the FPTP, resulted in his party trailing in fourth place and the UK Independence Party coming second. Way to go, Cleggy!

Perhaps young Clegg needs to be reminded of ''Hatched', 'Counting' and 'Chickens'?
