Nick Clegg makes a statement and keeps to his word (video)

Nick Clegg honours what he said during the election, and says it is up to David Cameron to demonstrate that the Conservatives can form a government in the national interest. Listen carefully though. And listen also to what he does not say! He does not say he will do a deal, nor that he will talk to the Conservatives.

I agree with Nick – The rise of the Liberal Democrats

I agree with Nick, do you agree with Nick? Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrats are in dreamland this weekend after a huge post-debate surge for the LibDems. Will they be able to keep this momentum up until the election and will it translate into a hung parliament? (Or a Liberal Democrat government, dare we dream!?) It all remains to be seen, but it has certainly turned what looked like a boring election into a very interesting one. As Nick Clegg himself put it, “all bets are off.” And so they are as all polls including youGov show a very strong showing from the “third party.”
