What I find difficult to understand is the appalling management of the yes campaign. Hardly anyone understands the argument for av yet nearly everyone knows about the argument against.
Partly the result of the right wing press but there seems to be a lot of money behind the no campaign.
Clegg has made a dreadful mistake, his deal with the conservative is going to deliver his party nothing except electoral wipeout.
