David Cameron And Nick Clegg
David Cameron and Nick Clegg: the odd couple?

Two years, three cabinet resignations, and one double-dip recession since that magic day in the Downing Street rose garden when the coalition was introduced to the world, David Cameron and Nick Clegg are set to renew their vows.

But as the prime minister and his deputy prepare to appear in "gritty" Essex ahead of setting out their legislative agenda in the Queen's speech's on Wednesday, people on social networking site Twitter couldn't help but wonder if the only way was coalition - or if Cameron and Clegg were reforming to tour with S Club 7.

If RED ED were to start TALKING to the Public instead of LECTURING (his SPEECH VOICE SUCKS) his message would come across. The Public are FED UP with the Coalition,the Tory's and especially the Lib Dems.
Someone needs to sit down with Ed and tell him slowly, but firmly, just quit giving speeches...TALK to us...just look into the camera and TALK...be sincere..lose the SPEECH TALK...We WANT to listen...we REALLY DO!

Ed has a long way yet still to go before he catches up with the nympholepsy that drives the prolix versing of Camoron.

The future for them is not a rose garden.

Just when are these so-call Leaders going to learn to grow up, for the Public at Large are becoming increasingly fed up with ALL the Spinning, and Love in's, where these Muppet's keep pretending they are the best thing slice Sliced - Bread.

What we keep getting today beside increasing Austerity, is Posh - Boy'o Politics, and Policies that are ruining the Social Fabric of the whole of the UK, while we are seeing today yet another re-launching of Titanic togetherness between two failed Political Leaders that are Chief Camoron, and his Butler Cleggless.

The sooner, the Con-dem's are removed from Power, the better.

only in England could a parties that were not even elected into government who refuse to admit that they are wrong in their policies, which has been proved by the loss of so many seats at local elections, remain in power. Anywhere else and the people would be demanding their dismissal. They are a pair of muppets leading a bunch of puppets and the sooner they are gone the better.

Their policys are designed for self gain not the good of the country

I bet they can't stand the sight of each other. They knew the only way they will ever get into any government is to be half each of a love /hate relationship.The problem is both being spoiled little rich boys who have always had their own way, they can't bare letting each other have a say.

If Camera-on, Cloggy and Millipede are all in a marriage of convenience what would the offspring be like? Well, I'll let you into a little secret: the offspring will look like a massive mountain of debt and because the government has no money of its own, the only way it can feed that baby is to take what it needs from us! Lol

If Camera-on and Cloggy are in a marriage of convenience, what kind of offspring will they produce?
02:03 PM on 05/08/2012
Convenient for them because neither of them would have had as much as a sniff of POWER wiythout it. Bad news for the rest of us because we have to suffer their sickening patronising and their pompous, self satisfied egos.

Three cabinet resignations and three hanging by a thread (Messrs Hunt, May and Lansley) not exactly a good record over such a short period of time.

All I want to know is why they have to come to Essex? Life's bad enough here already. The last thing wee need is a visit from the Pinocchio brothers.
