The former leader takes up the Lib Dems’ new ‘Blukip’ bogeyman of a Conservative/UKIP/DUP pact that would leave the country “immersed in cuts”.
True to Lib Dem form, Paddy agrees with Ken on the need for proportional representation and Michael on the threat of the SNP.
He contends that we have become “a classless society” – and will set out in his election address his demands for our EU renegotiation.
He would find it hard to sell a second Lib/Con coalition to his party…or to serve in a Lib/Lab coalition as Deputy Prime Minister.
Clegg may seem to lack authority, but consider its abuses – as in the case of Howard Flight.
