The face of a haunted leader
Poor old Clegg looking worn out and red
eyed. So what! He has brought this on himself with his self serving arrogance
and "I know best" attitude.
Pressure is on Nick Clegg to quit as Lib Dem leader after the party’s wipeout in the European elections.
Pressure is on Nick Clegg to quit as Lib Dem leader after the party’s wipeout in the European elections.
Following a catastrophic night, which cost him all but one of his MEPs,
he was forced to admit he had lost the argument over Europe.
In an emotional interview, the Deputy Prime Minister said being beaten
into fifth place by the Greens had been ‘gutting and heartbreaking’
As the leader of a political party he
should get back to some fundamentals.
As individuals we cannot all turn up in
the house of commons to argue our case. There are not enough chairs for a
start. So we choose a representative to present our case for us. If enough
people have the same view then laws are passed and society changes. This is
called representative government. Laws come from the people up, not from the
government down (most of europe is the latter).
Nick you forgot this. Your job is to
represent the peoples' wishes not to reject them or espouse your ideas. The people do not wish to be in a european superstate so you must stop harping on about
your beliefs.
They are irrelevant. Reflect the views
of the people.
As someone once said. "Think not of what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country" I think all the LibLabCon politicians need to think on that one.
