Strength Through Geometry

Nick Clegg has been busy at that characteristic Blairite occupation, the drawing of lines under things he doesn't wish to talk about any more. Clegg predicted that the Liberal Democrats would "move forward without rancour and in a united way", which - aside from acknowledging the fact that nobody actually murdered him - presumably means that he anticipates a relatively calm ride for the bankers' levy of 0.075% and for Andrew Lansley's programme to turkeytwizzlerise the NHS; or "the liberal, fair things we want for Britain as a whole", as Clegg tactfully referred to them. He noted once again that the vote to increase students' debts by 300% had been a difficult issue for Nick Clegg and some other people, and Vince Cable duly chimed in with the point that adversity breeds valour, particularly when one is a man of the calibre necessary to participate in Daveybloke's Cuddly Coalition. So that was all right.
