  1. You always talk about never forgiving the Lib Dems but what are you never forgiving them for? Now, I’m left wing so I would never vote for the lib dems in a fair system for the same reason I would never vote for the current Labour Party under a fair system but I still feel like the Lib Dems have been done so very dirty and everybody just goes along with it. We had the tories in power and we got a vote on electoral reform (remember that fair system I was talking about before), fox hunting banned, gay marriage legalised and university accessible for all. I went to university before and after the new tuition fees and I can assure you that the new tuition fees are so much easier to handle than the old ones. I have something like £30,000 of student loan debt and I never think about it because it has no impact on my life. It’s a marginal graduate tax that doesn’t affect my credit score and is forgiven after 25 years. Is it free tuition? No. Were the tories ever going to give us free tuition? No. Were Labour going to? They were the ones that scrapped grants in the first place. The lib dems exist for a very simple reason, for tories and Labour to defect to when they can’t handle their party actually doing what it set out to do. All these tories defecting to Labour should be defecting to the lib dems, all these neo lib Labour muppets trying to scrap all their progressive policies and complaining that there’s no money for things should be Lib Dems but they aren’t because people like you keep droning on about the terrible things Nick Clegg did and because nobody stepped up to make the case for electoral reform when the lib dems fell on their sword to make electoral reform happen
