It was wonderful to see Nick Clegg, the back stabbing Liberal who sold Britain down the swanny get a good public thrashing by Andrew Neill on the Sunday Politics programme. All I can say is he deserved it. No matter how much Neill put across how Clegg's view of a BREXIT actually meant staying in the EU as a full EU member Clegg denied it. You just can't help ask how far can this unscrupulous man back pedal to keep his job as an MP. As well as how the hell did Sheffield Hallam vote him back in? Because Clegg no matter what you think this country is a democracy and voted OUT. In a swipe at Clegg, Neill asked whether the Liberal Democrats would just change their name to Liberals. Clegg pretending he didn't understand what Neill meant, caught on eventually.
There is no doubt Clegg is an incredibly knowledgeable individual on the EU, however when he was put into the interview ring with a cerebral heavy weight like Neill he met his match in more ways than one. Still Clegg continues to blindly think his is right. It was clear from this interview Clegg will do everything he can to prevent the UK from coming out of Europe. His response was to say during the referendum the BREXIT campaign failed to issue a manifesto and by keeping their campaign vague they won votes. However, what Neill missed out on was saying the Liberal Democrats didn't put anything in the manifesto about getting in bed with the Tories in 2010 either. How can Clegg ask for a defined manifesto when the Liberals lied to the public by their own disgusting need to be in power. Clegg above all being the biggest liar and destroyer of a party which now considers the victory of Richmond and the addition of one more MP as significant. It's rumoured Clegg always knew the Liberal's early manifesto was unsustainable but never published his in his book. Further he is unrepentant of the loss of 45 Liberal MPs from his own party and thinks he was in the right. Clegg is suffering from the same self importance as his friend and dinner companion Cameron. It's the rich boy privileged boy phenomenon, where the rest of the voters kowtow down in worship to their inflated egos. There isn't a room big enough to hold them, and the two together no doubt must of had big problems when holding joint cabinet meetings. Which may well of been held at the Royal Albert Hall just so they could all sit around the table together.
The episode of Sunday Politics on 4th December 2016 seemed also to be car crash TV for Dianne Abbott who also later in the program came across as being cut from the same material as Clegg. Politics may well be going crazy but Andrew Neill has done an excellent job of brining them to heal. The only thing is it's a pity none of them have the decency to hold up their hands and beg forgiveness. Then again this is always difficult with idiots.
