However - you as a party supported the change to A.V. - you were totally out of step with the British population on this one - would you admit that you were wrong?
As I said at the time, AV wasnt a good choice but its better than FPTP. But this wasnt a particularly fair vote, most of the media backed No, and the No campaign managed to turn it into a vote on Clegg.
And Clegg gave it very little chance in the first place by providing amunition to the No camp, saying it was a 'miserable little compromise'.
He should have insisted on a referendum on PR or AV+, something many people are actually entusiastic about.
The Local election was largely about people turning from Clegg, so no surprise it lost really. Shame it was a wasted opertunity.
