SIR – The ‘Fib’ Dems have proved that they are no better than the Labour and Conservative parties, campaigning against tuition fees to woo the young voters and now voting to introduce them, effectively spitting in the faces of their young supporters.
The tuition protests proved that the Lib Dems’ only concern is for serving their masters, the Conservatives, rather than the people that voted for them.
Had this vote been just prior to an election, would the Lib Dems have supported this Bill? Of course not. The reality is all they are concerned about is holding on to power. Lib Dem votes have been in decline for many years, and I think 2011 could see them all but wiped out at a local level – that would be one protest they would take notice of!
