Nick Clegg should leave the government: if he had any principles that is.

David Cameron deployed he veto which the Lib-Dem leader, and deputy PM! nick Clegg, was fine with. That is he was fine until the weirdos who pass for his party grandees decided they were not happy. When the started to get restless Clegg flipped, as he does with any principle or action (see student fees). 

Now Clegg says he is bitterly disappointed, that Cameron was wrong to veto, that things would have been different if there was any justice and he was handling the talks, and for good measure, that the UK was some kind of irrelevant 'pygmy' adrift from the EU. Apprarantly Britian is too weak and needy to survive outside the undemocratic control of the EU. 

So much for consistency, or the old mantra of collective responabilty , and not attacking your own government whilst in government. 

I really think Clegg should now leave government and bring down the coalition. 

I mean he and his party seem to dislike their partners and their government with visceral intensity so now can they continue?

So a fallen government and a new election should be held. 

The thing is Clegg has doe something incredibly stupid. He's made is, and his party's, continuation in government untenable. However Cameron has done something that chimes with a huge majority of the voters. Clegg's own party is in decline and its going to get much worse once their slavish EU mentailty filters through. 

They will be anhiliated at any electection. 

No power, not limos, no jobs. Only the dark days of scrabbling for jobs and impotent snipping. 

This isn't good for a party that needs time to become popular or raise the cash to fund an election. 

However any party of principle cannot continue in government now Clegg and his party have destroyed the trust, shared responabilty and relationships with their coalition members. 

So Clegg will bring down the government now. 

Won't he?

As a little hint the answer is no. That would mean no power. No limos. No glamour. And electoral disaster. 

It just shows how utterly unprincipled Clegg and his party is. It's not nice.
