'The Liberal Democrats have dropped to just 11% with Ipsos Mori, their lowest rating with the pollster for 19 years, according to the latest poll, given to the Guardian.Among those certain to vote, Labour is on 39%, unchanged on last month, the Conservatives are up two on 38%, and the Liberal Democrats are down three to 11%, their lowest since January 1991.'
(The Guardian.)
Tactically of course, this means that The Liberal Democrats are simply unable to pull out of the coalition. Should they do so, or switch loyalty to Labour, they might well be facing total annihilation in the next General Election - consequently, they will dare take no risk of fomenting one. (But then, we are talking about politicians and I suppose that stupider things have been done.) By waiting - perhaps things might improve.
