Well it seems to be blame the Liberals time in Uk politics. It has always been a deck of cards like system in Britain of Labour and Conservative since the end of the War in 1945. During the War a coalition Government worked. in the 19th cent. it had always been Conservatives and Liberals which the Americans took onboard. Both parties being right of centre whereas Labour is left of centre. Old Liberals, like me, straddled the centre ground taking good policies from both sides but never being voted into office.
Then the Liberals thirst for power took over in earnest and they flirted with the Social Democrats and then the LibDem pact began and ended, followed by a name change to Liberal Democrats. Obviously Liberals are democratic, so why bother to tell us all again??
People 'knew where they were' with a two party system and the injection of Liberals into the mix has un nerved them. I think they just like the blame game!
