Yep, done and dusted... Would have thouht we'll get the announcement about 6-7, timed for the news!!
How long will it last though?? Year or so?
I reckon this is what Labour are banking on - a disasterous Con/Lib pact, a new General election within 18 months and Labour returned with a landslide.How long will it last though?? Year or so?

I reckon so too.I just can't see a deal sticking, they are too far apart on Europe, electoral process and immigration. I think it will hold for a while but at the first big bust up one of those three issues will come up and it'll go bang. That or, they simply won't address those issues in the course of the parliment and who knows.
Odds on the spin machine working overtime to 'do a blair' with milliband as the youthful new dynamic leader of the labour party replacing winky, and convincing the great unwashed that they are now a viable alternative to the tories? As loathesome and vile as milliband is, I can see it happening.
Call me a cynic but I'm starting to wonder if this might be a bit of a faux pas by the tories - give them a lib/lab pact which would cause a bit of a PR nightmare with the public, give them I dunno, say 9 months of deferring their dealing with the economic problems and watch the markets react accordingly, then watch the tories absolutely walk it at the next G/E. Unlikely turn of events, but I never was one for optimism.

Skys saying that nothings certain, but it looks very likely, with winky out tomorrow
