The hilarity in the house of parliament continues. This time, while Nick Clegg is out there preaching honesty to the House of Commons and teaching them to acknowledge that when it comes to the administration of internships there is "a lot to be desired", David Cameron pops up on the Daily Telegraph and lets the world know he is "very relaxed" about offering internships to people he knows, in fact, he has his neighbour coming in.
This continuous battle of remarks, in the media, between our leaders really makes one wonder whether the two should just check what they are saying with each other. When stepping into such an unusual, and quite frankly ridiculous, partnership Clegg and Cameron were the people who really knew how little they have in common. Yet, in stead of attempting to represent themselves as a united power and give Britain a sense of strength and security, they continuously contradict and attack each other in the most public way possible .
The core of this problem is even more specific - they never discuss the essentials. While Liberal and Conservative values clash on absolutely everything and their changes to education have caused the march of over 500,000 demonstrators in March, the two never fail to argue over something fundamentally insignificant. While NHS and higher education cuts are causing worry and unemployment, our Prime Minister makes sure to outline he is "not ashamed of" going to a public school. Thank you David, for a split second there, in between the unemployment and destruction of social mobility you are creating, I was so distressed at the thought that you were!
