As I recall it was a hung parliament, Tories and the LibDem's done a deal so they could share ministerial cars to get to work. God knows what happened to Cameron’s, eBay maybe.

The UK's largest mortgage lender expects house prices to fall this year and next before rising in 2025.
Halifax-owner Lloyds Banking Group predicts prices will drop 4.7% this year and by a further 2.4% in 2024 before recovering.
Lenders have blamed higher borrowing costs for a slowdown in house sales.
But the average house price remains about £40,000 higher than at the height of Covid when prices soared, as people working from home sought more space.
Lloyds said on Wednesday that while prices would fall over the next two years, longer term growth would be steady with prices rising 0.6% by 2027.
Interest rates are currently at 5.25%, their highest level for 15 years, driven by a series of rate rises aimed at tackling soaring consumer prices.
As a result, lenders have raised their borrowing rates, including for mortgages. The latest figures show the average rate on two-year fixed is 6.24% on average, according to financial information service Moneyfacts.
Lloyds' forecasting is based on the Halifax House Price Index, which excludes figures for cash buyers, which currently make up over 30% of housing sales.
Despite data from mortgage lenders showing falls in house prices, the average price of a home in the UK remains high.

It will take to make homes affordable again for millions of Americans.
"A few scenarios using NAR data help illustrate how far affordability is from the average between 1989 and 2019, and what would be required to push it back into a more typical range as the national average for the 30-year ticked lower to 7.98% on Tuesday.
If home prices are stable, rates need to fall to 3.55% in order to be back to historical average.
If prices grow 5%, rates need to fall to 3.16%.
If prices stay the same but incomes increase 5%, rates need to fall to 3.95%
A mortgage rate that stays around 8% means median home prices need to fall by 35%, to $265,000.
If rates stay at 8% and prices at current levels, income needs to increase by 63%.
But these numbers understate the challenge of getting affordability back to where Americans are used to seeing it."
