Is the latest spat between Clegg and Cameron staged to show the parties do disagree?
Clegg wants AV because his party would be the only beneficiaries of it. Cameron doesn’t want it because it would force his party to actually WORK on getting elected instead of expecting it as a God given right. The so called fall out of both these guys is all just a stage show. Clegg wants to try to win back a ew supporters in the May elections, and Cameron is playing aong with him. The reasons are pretty obvious to me. Both men want the coalition to continue and they think that if the Lib Dems vote collapses in May, then it could have a serious backlash in the Commons. Many Lib Dem MP’s could consider a vote of no confidence in Nick Clgg and either resign or cross the floor to Labour which would spark a General Election. Cameron doesnt want that to happen, but he realises that it could, so it’s in his own interests to maintain the coaltion, baring in mind that his own party are very unlikely to get a majority if an election were called in the Summer, givn his record of cuts to public
