Coalition Government and the Voter



Telegraph: Reports that the new coalition government has a 64% approval rating from the UK voter. The result of the Hung Parliament was that it forced the political parties to work together, the chance of Labour/Lib Dem pact was narrow due to the fact that sums did not march up in the House of Commons, any such coalition would survive day by day, with the a Conservative / Lib Dems Pact the Government has a healthy majority and can try to solve the economic mess that was left by the last Labour Government. One can postulate that by this time next year the Coalition Government will be hated due to the public spending cuts and the raise in taxes, but so far the UK voter is happy with the May result.
