nope - sorrygrew up through 20 years of tories, even ended up unemployed because of them.
was so happy when labour got in eventually
then tony turned into god loving nazi
so then voted clegg
AND NOW I HATE MYSELF!!!!!
So no, 'supportive' is the opposite of how I feel. They are both wankers - ESP clegg as he has handed principles over for power.
*steps off soapbox*
*climbs back into bunker*

I remember a few years agohaving a conversation where the resounding feeling was, wouldn't it be brilliant if the LibDems had some say in politics, just any say at all.
Now I wake up in a country where the LibDems are in a coalition government. Personally I think this is the most exciting, principled thing to happen in politics certainly within my lifetime (although I'm only little).
As for Clegg, which is more principled? Doing what you think is right for the country in an unprecedented position, or making yourself more popular in the eyes of the masses? I think Clegg is sacrificing his political future and perhaps the future of his party for the sake of making a coalition work and achieving compromise where it is possible.
