Today is the first day of the doomed Liberal Democrat Conservative coalition.
And already things are starting to go wrong!
Posts have been allocated in government and the grand coalition has thrown up the following:
Prime Minister (Conservative)
Chancellor (Conservative)
Home Secretary (Conservative)
Foreign Secreatary (Conservative)
Education Secretary (Yup... Conservative even though they dont believe in Education outside of the public schools)
Health Secretary (incredibly, Conservative)
Lord Chief Justice (Conservative)
Defence Secretary (Conservative)
OK.
So what senior jobs have the Libservatives been offered?
Umm....
Hang on....
Well, remember that job that John Prescott had (the one where the press sneered "What's his job description? What does he do?"), that's right, Deputy PM - well that's gone to Cleggy. The LibDem boss.
Other than that there are the following
Scottish Secretary (Libservative - no surprise considering that the Scots would stone a Tory rather than look at one!)
Secretary to The Treasury (a kind of poor mans chancellor) (Libservative)
Bottle Washer (Libservative)
And that's it!
That's their lot.
