Was Nick Clegg stabbed in the back by local Tories?
Interesting and rather funny to read about the Deputy Prime Minister's embarrassing visit to the Shepherd's Bush Village Hall. There already seems to be a thread of opinion that believes he was set up by his coalition partners. It is a rather need conspiracy theory but this looks like a plain cock-up to me. Perhaps he should have consulted more with the Council - it would be interesting to know how much he actually did - but the people primarily responsible for letting him know the situation were his local party organisers. If he didn't speak to them it suggests an alarming isolation from Lib Dem grassroots.
