"it's this whole tuition fee thing which does expose the somewhat childish nature of the Lib Dem support."
Huw's right about the nature of Lib-Dem support. Clegg's big mistake was not going back on his promise to abolish tuition fees, for which many of his supporters never forgave him, but the colossal stupidity of making the promise in the first place. It was never in his power to abolish tuition fees and he should have realized that when he decided to make the promise. It was an interesting example of promising something that makes you and your supporters feel good about themselves, but unfortunately smugness is no substitute for practicality.
