From today's Observer,

"One of the first state schools to take on a private partner has had to be "rescued" by the local council after it was deemed inadequate by inspectors.

The move will prove embarrassing for the Conservative party, because Kings International College lies in the constituency being defended by its shadow education minister, Michael Gove, who has been promoting his party's Swedish-style "free schools" policy, which will allow parents, charities and other organisations to set up schools outside local authority control.

The Observer today has endorsed the Lib Dems saying

"The vital context for this election is the twin crises in our economy and our politics. On both issues most credit accrues to the Liberal Democrats. Their Treasury spokesman Vince Cable was prescient in warning of an unsustainable debt bubble; Nick Clegg pushed for greater openness about expenses long before the scandal erupted.

The independent lobby group 38 Degrees is campaigning to stop scaremongering about a hung Parliament. They say,

"Our poll results are in - over 90% of us want to stop the scaremongering about a hung parliament. So the campaign starts now!

The tabloid press is doing all it can to skew the election result by bullying and scaring voters. [1] The political editor of The Sun has been given clear instructions from Rupert Murdoch: "It is my job to see that Cameron f****g well gets into Downing Street" [2]. Murdoch and his tabloid press friends think they've got the right to decide who governs us.

The analysis reveals that:

The Inheritance Tax pledge would cost £6bn over the course of the next Parliament

It is aimed at the wealthiest 0.8% of estates in the UK

Every year, 3,000 of the wealthiest estates in the country would each benefit by almost £250,000 Commenting, Liberal Democrat Shadow Chancellor Vince Cable said:

The Lib Dem campaign has been endorsed by the Guardian tonight, in a shock move the Labour supporting paper said

"Citizens have votes. Newspapers do not. However, if the Guardian had a vote in the 2010 general election it would be cast enthusiastically for the Liberal Democrats."

"Surveying the wider agenda and the experience of the past decade, however, there is little doubt that in many areas of policy and tone, the Liberal Democrats have for some time most closely matched our own priorities and instincts. On political and constitutional change, they articulate and represent the change which is now so widely wanted. On civil liberty and criminal justice, they have remained true to liberal values and human rights in ways that the other parties, Labour more than the Tories in some respects, have not. They are less tied to reactionary and sectional class interests than either of the other parties.

Last night was the final of the three televised Leaders' debates. Leader of the Liberal Democrats, Nick Clegg, debated with Gordon Brown and David Cameron about the economy. Subjects discussed included breaking up the banks, creating more jobs and reinvigorating the British economy.

Most post-debate polls scored this final debate to David Cameron, but again put Nick Clegg clearly ahead of Gordon Brown. An analysis by pollsters Angus Reid of previously undecided voters who watched the debate gave Nick Clegg 37%, David Cameron 25%, Gordon Brown 22% and Not sure 16%. Angus Reid found that 32% of undecided voters say they are now more likely to vote for the Liberal Democrats after watching the final debate, with just 18% Conservative and 15% Labour.

No this is not a story about Jonty Lord getting his A to Z out and visiting Woking. Its about members of the House of Lords visiting to support Rosie.

After the visit of Lord McNally to launch our campaign, we welcomed Lord Brian Cotter, former Woking Councillor and Lib Dem MP for Weston-Super-Mare.

Commenting on a leaked report from PriceWaterhouseCoopers on behalf of major banks warning that the impact of measures to tighten regulation of the banking sector risks a double-dip recession, Vince Cable said:

"Given the scale of the bailout the financial sector has received from the taxpayer, this kind of scaremongering from the City is simply whingeing.

Politics Home has conducted a poll on the electoral system

"Voters believe we need to seriously think about changing the 'unfair' electoral system

A majority of the public believe that the current voting system is unfair, and that it is now time to start thinking seriously about alternatives, according to new PoliticsHome research.
