7 years ago I took the decision to resign from the Liberal Democrats as the left of Centre Party that I joined in 1990 which was so opposed to the Tories had changed into a Centre Right Tory lite Party.
Today the Lib Dems now prop up the Tory Administration in the UK Government not really a great surprise as telling the Lib Dems apart from the Tory Party for the past few years has been increasingly hard.
Will be interesting to see how many Lib Dems now cross the floor and join the Labour Party.
Looking at a post from well known Lib Dem activist and Blogger Nick Starling it might be sooner then you think.

All go again
Been a very busy week indeed.
Monday I had a seat fitting in the Formula Ford racecar that I have been kindly lent to do testing in.
Was rather nevous that the clutch would be to hard to push with my bad leg put the engineer and a friend who races in the British GT Championship explained the method for racecar control is not as hard as I throught.
Was at a reception on tuesday night for the Norwich North Bye-election campaign some of the people there did not seem pleased to see me and serveral Gibson supporters even refused to shake my hand.
On wednesday had the fun of Chairing a Council meeting which was good and manged to get through the adoption of a Child Protection and Vulnerable adults policy.
Thursday was also a busy day as I attended the Building Britian's future event at Cambridge Guildhall and talked with the Chancellor about tax breaks for career changers wanting to do training and education.
Also spoke in the debate about the need for UK to create wealth by becoming a world leader in innovative engineering solutions.
