Anyone know the last time a PM got rid of three party leaders in as many hours?

WOW :shock:

Who saw all this coming? With the exception of the Lib/Dem demise.

A complete purge of your main political opponents overnight.

I'm wondering if that remark from Lucy Pwell about the pledges carved in stone not meaning they won't be broken did for the Labour vote.

Where does all this leave Ms Sturgeon? She's just flown in BT FlyBe,I think she's coming to talk to Cameron who she said she would destroy. I don't think Cameron will be cutting budgets in England to hand out more dosh to Scotland.

Maybe she go the way of that other kingmaker, Warwick.

No it isn't . Their love of playing the race card at every opportunity, looking for victim bandwagons to jump on , and a general hatred of anything white and middle-class,
despite hypocritically enjoying the benefits of working alongside them, such as private schools for their kids , away from the rough dole-fodder comprehensives.
