Roll up roll up for the great Lib Dem hypocrisy feast !

The Lib Dems are hated by all the other parties, but not for their politics ( though much of that is objectionable ). No the Lib Dems are hated for their hypocrisy.

Chris Huhne is the high priest of nasty the nasty cult of Lib Demery.

So the cheer from the whole country when he was charged with lying is still echoing around the drinking holes of Westminster.

All cheer but one - Nick Clegg.

Cleggy hates Huhne, but is scared witless by him. Hence we have more L:ib Dem hypocrisy as Clegg claims he can't wait to get Huhne back in the cabinet. ( Maybe Clegg should do 5 years for that porkie himself ).

This is just going to get better and better - for all those who aren't paid up members of the Janus Party.

Signalling market failure

David Cameron is falling into the trap #RedEd has laid for him, ably assisted by that national disgrace as a minister Chris Huhne.

Apparently Energy companies are to be told to ... and here its get vague, but the public are meant to hear the words reduce prices.

What he's saying is the market isn't working - either through collaboration ( legal or not ) and/or due to a failure of competition.

When we all know one of the key factors in increasing electricity prices is the green costs government has bundled onto consumers. ( #RedEd is as guilty as the disgrace Huhne in this department. )

By calling the companies together Cameron gives weight to the argument that their is a conspiracy and that markets don't work.

Its a spectacular home goal born of a lack of self confidence and very very short term thinking. Plus perhaps desperation to hide the cruel costs that mindless green fascism is putting on top of the poorest in this country.

Its a depressing sight.

If Huhne wins, England could be his trumpt card

Don't get me wrong - Huhne is generally far further from Man in a Shed's political view points than Nick Clegg, or perhaps even Gordon Brown, however ...

now that David Cameron has given up on the English as a necessary sacrifice in the cause of trying to revive the flat lining Scottish Conservative party ( odd that the word Scottish is Ok - but not English ) there is a gap for someone to speak for England. [ The English Democrats you could argue already do ].

This could be Huhne. Campaigning for an English parliament could go down very well in Labour marginals where the transfer of cash to Scotland and Wales hurts most.

It could help a lot in the west and even the south.

This is the ground David Cameron is giving up to revive a party north of the boarder whose strategy has seen it shrink from the largest to the smallest of the main parties in Scotland.

Who will speak for England ? ( OK the Lib Dems are architects of the current devolution disaster just as much as Labour is, but they don't normally let such things stop them. )
