Michael Ignatieff is out of step with Liberal voters on coalition
0 comments Posted by 2011 at 16:06
Now that Gilles Duceppe has initiated a belated public dialogue on the very real prospects of a coalition government after the next election – a Liberal-NDP government – let's look at the latest poll by EKOS on the subject (January 27 2011).
That poll clearly shows that Ignatieff's is turning his back on two-thirds of Liberal voters
when it comes to a coalition government:
How can a leader claim to be leading on such a vital issue when the huge majority of potential Liberal voters would prefer an outcome which is the direct opposite of the one he has said he prefers?
Perhaps it is time for Ignatieff and his advisors to speak to members of the Liberal Party?

The Cat gets it: Nick Clegg believes in Vampire Politics, not in Proportional Representation
0 comments Posted by 2011 at 09:27This post tells why Clegg is not pushing a referendum on proportional representation in talks with Cameron, why the Labour counter offer will fail, and why a Canadian professor can keep Gordon Brown in his post as prime minister for the next two to four years.
After years of finding themselves shut out of power because their support is spread more evenly over the British political and geographic spaces than that of their rivals, the Tories and Labour, the LDP set a goal of trying to gain more seats in parliament by advocating electoral reform through some type of proportional representation (PR).
