As part of the new agreement between the Tories and Lib Dems they are going to pass legislation immediately stating that a vote of no confidence in the commons against this Government requires a minimum of 55%.
If every single non Tory MP, including the Liberals and the non attending Sinn Fein, were to vote against the Tories they wouldn't get the required number.
Effectively it means that they can stay in until May 2015 unchallenged.

Is that what they mean by change????????????

What's next????????

Democracy gone out of the window. Up until now, and for hundreds of years it has been possible to oust an underperforming government by one vote in a vote of no confidence.............not now though.

God help us. They can now do what the hell they like.

Any party will do whatever they need to keep a grip on power, the Tories aren't no different Kev

Aye it is, but you got the years wrong.............it's been happening since the second world war.
And it is about to happen again.

However......
Changing the voting rules in Parliament is what the likes of Hitler would do.

What's next.............Kristalnacht.

This is serious................no other government since Parliament began has tried this one.

Neither party had it in their manifesto................it hasn't taken long to go outside the box has it.

Personally I think it's a big risk which could have serious repercussions............but we'll see.

I truly, truly, give up. I would read less ridiculous statements in the Sun, was I a subscriber to that organ.

Incidentally, Hitler stopped short of video surveilance even though Himmler wanted it.

We're doomed I tell ye..............doomed.
