are you saying we're better off with the tories slashing and burning there way through public services
as long as there's some stability in parliment for a while?

You may not agree with Tory policy
...and I don't either, but they are doing what they think is best for the economy. It is yet to be seen if it will be successful in dragging us out of the mire, but at least they are doing something. With a minority government there would be so much politicking and in fighting that nothing would get done. The advantage of the coalition and stability is that the government can make plans for the economic recovery over the next 5 years. This involves things like tuition fees, the benefit the government will not see for 3 years.

If the coalition collapses next year and an election is called, say Labour get in, they will try and change everything and we will be back to square one, and worse off.

Economic recovery will not happen over night.
