And you thought I was hard on Labour and the Lib Dems . . . UPDATED

Soap operas have nothing on the haggling over who will form a government in the UK. The Daily Mail’s coverage of the spectacle is particularly fun.

That paper does not like the prospects of a Lab-Lib led coalition, not outwardly at least. I suspect they secretly are salivating at all the newspapers such a “squalid” outcome would sell. They certainly do not like Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg whom they liken to a “harlot” and “Madame Fifi”.

And you thought I was hard on Labour and the Lib Dems!

UPDATE: Chatter has it Brown is about to meet The Queen and quit as PM to make way for Cameron. And there are reports and photos of a moving van in back of 10 Downing. Did I mention this is quite a soap opera?
