    Ten months on, they're at it again, live on Sky News, discussing the coalition government, books and the Chilcot inquiry.

    This is Sky in a nutshell, arrogant journalism. Adam Boulton is an opinionated baboon and yet is supposed to be a top flight political journalist. Regardless of what Alastair Campbell, he's entitled to his opinion, the job of Boulton is to question that opinion for the benefit of the audience and not berate the guest with their own agenda. Awful news channel.

    Love it. Boulton is so up himself he was already half way to a hissy fit when the interviewer bypassed him at the intro. Swaying from side to side, finger pointing and then Campbell slipped the dagger in with "Calm down".... straight out of that film Anger Management.

      Boulton's ego couldn't take that he wasn't introduced alongside Campbell by Jeremy DooDah, if Sky had any integrity (laughing as I typed that) they would've sacked Boulton but I bet they were all whooping and slapping each other on the back in the news room.

    Both Liberal Democrats and Labour must have wished they had formed a coalition. Tories completely threw the Lib Dems popularity under the bus. Lib/Lab coalition would have been backed up by 15m votes, compared to the Tories 10m, so they had reasonable grounds to work together and form a coalition. Sadly, the Lib Dems took another path, at the cost to the country and their party.
