Vince Cable Sad Face Pictures: Why Does Lib Dem Minister Always Look So Down?

PICTURES: Why So Gloomy? Vince Cable Looking Sad
|

Nick Clegg seems to be getting sadder by the day as deputy Prime Minister, and we're worrying that the gloom is getting to his colleague Vince Cable.

The Lib Dem business secretary has been getting increasingly more Eeyore-like in the coalition, constantly picking fights with the Tories and trying every year to stop the banks paying out massive bonuses.

Cable seems to be getting glummer as the coalition goes on, only last year calling for it to break apart before the 2015 general election.

We at HuffPost UK chose to document his gloominess as we ask: what will cheer him up?
