Meetings, meetings and more meetings with no outcome yet – I wish they would get on with it instead of arguing the toss while the country borrows half a billion pounds a day just to keep running.

Enough already!

Anyway, here is a quick round up of whats being said around the blogosphere :

Constantly Furious calls for Dave to grow a pair :

It was always too much to expect that the Tories and the Lib Dems would proceed smoothly to any kind of agreement.

Cleggy himself may be a smooth, power-hungry public schoolboy, but behind him is the same old rabble of whining, hand-wringing beardies, who will never, ever, not in a fucking month of Sundays be able to work with inhabitants of the real world.

…

Dave, you’re on your own. And now it’s time to take action. Firm, decisive action, as befits a man who wants to lead a nation. Not everyone wants a Tory government, but right now it’s the least worst option by fucking miles.

Tell the Lib Dems that your final offer is already on the table, and that they have until 10am tomorrow to accept it. After that, there’s nothing. No deal.

Charlotte Gore opines on the Libdems obsession with PR :

They claim that economic stability is their top priority. Quite simply I’m not sure I believe that now.So sod civil liberties. Sod sorting out the deficit this year. Sod the plans to scrap ID cards and the Digital Economy Bill. As long as the sodding Lib Dems get their sodding PR, everything will be just fine, right?

So thanks, Gordon. You might just get the last laugh after all.

Obnoxio suggests that the worst option in the short term will be best :

So, from what I’ve seen today, I reckon the most painful short-term outcome is the best. LibLab coalition along with 17 other parties causing a national upchuck. People will look at the resulting clusterfuck and take a massive shit on the idea of PR. Markets will tank. The IMF will be called in. The government loses vote after vote. Eventually another general election is called.

Labour will be crucified even further, Limp Dumbs will be flushed down the toilet and hopefully Dave will realise that this social democratic shit doesn’t fly any more.

Dick Puddlecote isn’t happy :

Err, Clegg …

… Don’t you fucking dare!

No, seriously. Don’t.

Time for a strong beer away from the keyboard – in this mood I may break it.

Iain Dale has some thoughts for the Liberals :

The LibDems should bear one thing in mind when riding their two horses. David Milliband, the Labour leadership favourite, isn’t even on the Labour neogtiating team. So what happens when he takes over as Labour’s latest unelected Prime Minister? Will he be committed to the terms of the coalition agreement signed by Gordon Brown? One government is not bound by its predecessor.

The LibDems should think on that.

And here are another couple of comments from my readers…

“I must remember to check and see if the LibDem manifesto includes a commitment to the legalisation of prostitution.” Will S

“Mandelson negotiating with Clegg; do I detect a whiff of Molotov and Ribbentrop?” Michael C

And finally, where would we be without the Daily Mash :

CONSERVATIVE MPs will be forced to have at least one gay friend each and install a filthy stone age toilet in their homes under any coalition deal with the Liberal Democrats.

With the two parties edging towards an agreement, Lib Dem sources say the Tories must demonstrate their commitment to progressive values by having lunch every day with an absurdly flamboyant gay man who will litter the conversation with repulsive double entendres.

I can just imagine that scenario with tweedy country types choking on their starters.
