"Lib Dem massacre" was one of the Headlines used this morning to describe what has happened to the Liberal Democrats vote across the country in last nights elections. To be honest it was what I expected and a lot of other people that have voted Lib Dem were preparing themselves for. It is what the party deserved after what they have done on education and what they are about to do to the NHS while in power with the Conservative Party.
This is the price you pay for lying. You just can't lie to people in politics or personally. There is no way get to away with it. The Lib Dem party found this out the hard way last night. It wasn't just floating voters drifting back to Labour that caused the problem for them it was core voters staying away from the polls and others voting to punish them nationally. How they regain those voters and get the core vote out come the next election is going to be a big question they have to answer. Once you have lost the trust of people getting it back is the hardest thing to do in the world and that is what they need to do now.
