Clegg: No to AV ‘death rattle’ of Tory elite

Deputy prime minister Nick Clegg told the Independent on Sunday that ‘no’ campaign was the “death rattle of a right-wing elite”:

“[It is the] death rattle of a right-wing elite, a right-wing clique who want to keep things the way they are”.

“I include all those, and of course it includes the Conservative party, who like this nice little racket. They get a job for life and they waft into power and they don’t even need to bother try to get a majority of people onside.

“The ‘yes’ campaign has had to fight a campaign against a headwind of lies, misinformation and deceit, and that’s been tough on them.”
