[The Charlotte Gore Blog] Digital Economy Bill gets past Commons at The Charlotte Gore Blog: between the Front Benches of the various parties which does beg the question, if it’s true, what was in it for David Cameron and Nick Clegg? I suspect people are going to be pouring over the Electoral Commission’s website to see who’s been donating money to whom this year, although perhaps the answer will never be that obvious.

[PM] BBC - PM: AM Glass Box: He says: "This was not a voting intention poll but a panel of people who watched the debate and then gave their voting intentions afterwards. This is not a national random sample of the population - some 46 million people - but a sample of the nine million who watched the debate and we have no certainty that the sample even speak representatively for them."

[The Charlotte Gore Blog] Open letter on Digital Economy Bill at The Charlotte Gore Blog: I’m reliably informed that the Lib Dems intend to vote this down at the 3rd reading, but if the Tories and Labour want it to go through there’s very little that can be done. Sadly Westminister machinations, strategy and technical shenanigans are largely invisible to the outside world, so it’s pretty much anyone’s guess what the Lib Dem Parlimentary Party actually thinks.

[ConservativeHome's Local Government Blog] ConservativeHome's Local Government Blog: The battle for Bristol: One issue likely to develop over the coming months will be the Lib Dem proposal to trial a ”˜chip and bin’ incentive scheme designed to reduce the volume of household waste. Unlike other reward-based initiatives which positively encourage recycling, the Bristol bid will utilise the same technology as pay-as-you-throw where households are charged for the amount of residual waste collected.  Therefore, there is an obvious danger of an increase in fly-tipping and other anti-social behaviours arising from its adoption. We oppose this flawed model.

[The Charlotte Gore Blog] Please don't make me care at The Charlotte Gore Blog: I’ve also learnt that normal people seem to quite like the idea of a hung parliament, that they’re not especially keen on either Labour or the Conservatives being able to do what they want through sheer brute force. This probably bodes well for the Lib Dems –
