Topic: No party able to command majority in UK elections

Beware parties which have slagged off other parties, but may subsequently require them to form a coalition for government! This is a classic. Our Prime-minister is on the stand with his coalition partner and a reporter asks him if he now regrets calling him 'a joke' in a TV debate only weeks earlier!

This excruciating moment is probably only beaten by this one by the previous Prime-minister during the election campaign. He left his mic on! Bear in mind a few percent change in vote can result in a massive change in seats. It probably sealed his fate.
