Deal or no Deal
The Lib Dem conference in Harrogate has just finished with an open invitation from Ming Campbell to Gordon Brown for a deal if a hung parliament happens at the next General Election. In his speech his five criteria did not include PR, and a senior source said this would not be deal breaker. The Orange Bookers will be seething with what Ming has said I suspect.

The 5 conditions aren't tough. This is an open offer of coalition on Labour terms (though presumably with an LD Foreign Secretary). We are talking about the annexation of the LDs if Ming stays as leader.
It will also affect their vote in the Scottish election where their preference for yet another coalition with Labour was already becoming clear.
