THE Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats have put together a coalition that might give us stable government for two to five years.

At least they are willing to try this new arrangement, and we all ought to give them some time and a chance to make it work. If, and it is a very big if, the coalition can continue succeed as does in countries like Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark and New Zealand, our future could be so much better.

I have no liking of, or any agreement with, the Big Three, being passionately UKIP in belief, but for the sake of our country, and its millions of innocent, hard-working, decent folk, I very much hope, that Cameron and Clegg, make a success of their partnership and prove the doubters wrong.
