In The Know	All a bit academic now, Prunella, with an announcement due in 20 minutes (7.05pm) - outside the Cabinet Office.
Prunella Minge	There'll be a need because too many plans will fall foul of the Opposition, and there'll be a lingering problem over the perceived legitimacy of the minority Government and, lastly, the main players will be anxious to improve their position. I wasn't plucking the idea out of the ether. Look at the historical precedents. We're not dealing with some classical assembly of independent souls.

The bottom line is another General Election will have to be held within, say, 18 months, and probably much sooner, so your suggestion makes good sense for all concerned. Why (the need for another election) ? If the Tories produce reasoned and reasonable Bills they will get support (if everyone is "working in the interests of the nation") won't they ? Unfortunately the LibDems are back with the Tories now ... I expect PM Cameron to be crowned within the hour !
Francis D	This has been suggested as an option since the results were announced. It was mentioned again on the BBC news earlier today. I'm sure it's one of the things being considered as we speak. It would enable the LibDems to avoid any compromise which would weaken their credibility should there be any need for an early election.

Any pact will just guarantee an extraordinarily bitter lection full of internal feuds and recriminations and a muddled public campaign.
