A hung P' is not going to work - not with the UK in hot soup with the markets so the real question is: how much damage will be inflicted on the Lib-Dems come election time. More specifically, how the Lib-Dems/Clegg behave right now will become the controlling factor in the next election. If Clegg or his Party is perceived by the British Public as "trying it on" and/or "overplaying the Lib-Dem hand" then the outcome for the Lib-Dems will not be pretty – essentially it will be “Gazpacho soup time” for the Lib-Dems. Specifically, the Lib-Dems will be CRUSHED come the next election, which will probably come very quickly (probably in less than a year) and 'love them or hate them”, the Conservative Party will be returned to power with the majority they seek. <br /><br />Are you ready for another election round Glyn?

I'm glad to see Lembit brought to account by the electorate on his behaviour. <br /><br />I thought you had an excellent opponent in Heledd Fychan and great to see real alternatives on offer for local voters. It's a shame she didn't pick-up more of the votes but I do hope we will see more of her in Montgomeryshire in the future.<br /><br />We will be watching your first forays into Westminster with interest. For the sake of all the people who voted for you (and everybody else) I do hope you will go about your duties with honesty and integrity and play fair with all involved.
