Liberal Democrat Voice reports today that 48% of Liberal Democrats would prefer a deal with the party that has systematically destroyed them over the last two years, whilst 19% would choose a Liberal-Conservative pact at the next election.

What is surprising is the total lack of a centrist vision in British politics - social, economic and constitutional - without which the Liberal Democrats have very little future..
