How the news would look if everyone stopped waffling and told the truth.

The Invisible Man.


"Where's Nick, where's Nick," Labour MP's shouted today as David Cameron struggled to explain to Parliament how you can veto something without actually stopping it and claim a victory in a battle after refusing to even fight. Meanwhile Nick Clegg, perhaps less "The Invisible Man" and more "The Man Who Never Was," was in a TV studio telling everyone it was a disaster. We asked our political editor for an analysis; "Nick is basically cornered. He's stuck with a coalition that is destroying both his reputation and his party and can't get out of it because, if he does, the resulting general election would see the LibDems sunk without trace. David Cameron isn't in a much better position to be honest since he's now the prisoner of the Eurosceptics in his party and is stuck with a coalition partner that they can't stand the sight of. Three and half more years of this? Only if Clegg can become another of H.G.Wells' creations - "The Man Who Could Work Miracles."
