Unfit To Govern

The BBC has reported that Lib Dem MP Tim Farron has attacked the 'toxic Tories'. He asserts that the reason David Cameron gave the Lib Dems such a good deal was "….first of all, we are providing some cover for them. The reality is that David Cameron has a toxic brand….His brand, including most of his MPs, are toxic."  He further said "Our identity is going to be potentially compromised if we are not careful."

This last point is so blindingly obvious.  Support for the Lib Dems is falling as reported in recent Polls. 

Tim Farron's comments is surely an indication that cracks in the support for the ConLib (ConDem?) coalition by the rank and file Lib Dem MPs are beginning to widen.  How long is it going to be before a significant group of Lib Dem MPs defies the Whip or defects to Labour? Nothing like this is going to happen until the Labour Party have got their leadership election out of the way in September. However, I predict that such an event will happen before the Xmas recess.
