It doesn’t surprise me that there may be an agreement formed. Nick Clegg always said that he would negotiate with the party with the largest number of seats. There will obviously be a number of concessions made, obviously as SKY has apparently announced (according to tweetdeck feed) the immigration amnesty is one of these.
I am concerned that there will be a softening of the PR position – this is, in my opinion, paramount.
Lets watch our screens over the next few hours and see what happens…

After watching the outcome of the election, and the realisation that a hung-parliament was the outcome, I realised that although we had stopped the Tories from achieving power, that there was the very high probability that they would come to power via a coalition.
If this was the case, how long would the coalition last? 6 – 12 -18 months>
What concessions would the Tories make?
What would we have to give up?
Would we get any cabinet posts?
Also, as a sideline, what happened to the claimed youth vote (first time voters) who where enthused by Nick Clegg? Did they vote?

04.44 thank god, we managed to keep that christian moralist tory out of the house of commons! At least the campaign run by the local LibDem party decided NOT to focus on the obvious and instead, to fight a fair and clean one, a decision which was vindicated in their retention of the seat tonight.
