Ming Deal or No Deal?

Ming’s speech to the Lib Dem Spring Party Conference is being spun as a shopping list for a lib-lab deal if, as frequently predicted, we are faced with a hung parliament at the next election.   But was this speech soley aimed at Brown?

Campbell did not include electoral reform in his tests, but did include a number of areas in which the Tories seem to have similar commitments (no to ID cards, tackle Climate Change etc etc). Could this also be an olive branch to the Tories?  Is Ming playing both sides?

He may have said no when asked at the conference, (he had to) but can he continue to resist when offered the position of Foreign Secretary?

    Would the Tories “reduce inequality” as Ming demands? Of course not!
