# Allow the tories to form a minority government
and his party to vote for policies they liked without having to swallow the many, many more they didn't.

# ^This
I can kind of see why he entered a coalition - it was their first shot at being in Government and, if it had worked properly, would have got people used to the idea of Lib-Dems being in government.

But he fucked up.

So nobody will vote for them any more.

In fact he fucked up so spectacularly that people wasted the only voote they are likely to get in their lifetime on an election reform referendum by using it to 'punish' Clegg.

# Would have led to another election
which the Conservatives would have won.

Are you saying you'd rather have a conservative government than a coalition?

# It probably would have led to another election
which probably would have led to a slim majority for the tories. And that probably wouldn't be much difference to the coalition.
