Jo Swinson - New Lib Dem Leader

Bigfingers

We can expect her to go into coalition with another party, promise the earth, not deliver it, then blame it on someone else.

I think the odds of the Lib Dems going into a formal coalition are very low. They have learnt from their mistakes and posts such as your earlier one on her voting record, will be a tacit reminder of the folly of such coalitions. Confidence and supply is probably the way forward.

Bigfingers

Whilst you make some valid points, not all of her voting record was in the coalition. Since running for leader she has changed her mind on issues three or four times to suit her audience. That doesn't inspire confidence.

Rasczak

Such as?

Since the 1st July she has said twice she will not form a coalition then days later she said yes she will, then on the 19th she said she would with labour, then she said she would consider also the Conservatives. And according to richp007 she has since said no coalition again.
Doesn't instill  confidence really.

She seems to be excused for the terrible voting record she has because she was in a coalition.
If she had a shred of integrity she could have refused and resigned.
