14 years of Conservative rule and the only good things they've done are giving us a vote on membership of the EU, taking us out of the EU and helping Ukraine.
They put up VAT.
Booze is more expensive than its ever been.
80 pubs a month are closing, some of them for good.
Food bank demand is at the highest ever.
Some Tories are worth keeping (Douglas Ross is a good one) but there are not many who will keep their seats. I can see why the Tories won't be in power on Friday.

Douglas Ross is a remainer and should therefore be flung in a pit of his own shit and left to eat his way out

We havent had 14 years of Conservative rule. From 2010 to 2015 LibDem Nick Clegg, aka Rodney Trotter, was deputy prime minister.

Do you need a 50/50? All The Best This maybe a rhetorical question but, is it really necessary to explain? From 2010 to 2015 we did not have a Conservative government. We had a conservative/liberal coalition. Christ this is like teaching kids their ABC's. We've had conservative governments from 2015. Here to help.

Really! Who would have thought this would be so difficult.
The Janet and John explanation of a coalition government...
The 2010 to 2015 government was a 'coalition' government. A coalition government is formed if there is a hung parliament, that means no single party has a clear working majority in the House of Commons following a General Election. Thus two, or more, parties come together and form a 'coalition' government.
For the love of god tell me you understand...

But with 306 of the 363 Coalition MPs, and the PM and the Chancellor the Conservatives were clearly the senior partner. By the gods, tell me you understand. All The Best
