Lies upon lies
It would seem that Ming's speech and it's briefing has caused some real heartache in the Fibs as Iain Dale imparts here:
It couldn't happen to a nicer party and the others are laughing all the way to the ballot bank. Labour squeezed them in 1997 as they gave these hints and the others will just say a FibDem vote is now a Labour vote.
Ming's claims that he was on the phone were taken with a pinch of salt
So we had the usual cascade of Fibs as Ming hinted at a coalition, they briefed that they wanted a coalition and then they denied that they wanted a coaltion but then again maybe do.The Minging Briefer Uncovered
This is Mark Littlewood, who is Head of Press for the Liberal Democrats
for the time being at least. It was he who briefed out Ming's speech to journalists on Sunday and told them that PR wouldn't be a dealbreaker in a Lib/Lab coalition. Mr Littlewood is not flavour of the month on several LibDem blogs. I, however, salute him.
