Cameron Program Said to Ease Clegg Way to Renew Coalition

David Camerons pledges of unfunded tax cuts, a repeal of human-rights laws and tighter immigration rules wowed his Conservative Party last week. For different reasons, they also delighted his Liberal Democrat coalition partners.

To Liberal Democrats, much of what Camerons party set out is anathema. Still, aides to Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg said that far from being an obstacle to another coalition, the Tory pledges should be seen as an opening gambit for talks that might follow next Mays election -- one that polls suggest will end inconclusively and require another coalition.

By setting out their stall now, according to the two aides, who asked not to be named discussing internal party election strategy, the Tories had put themselves in a position from which they could be forced to give ground in negotiations.

Two weeks ago, we sat down and worked through what our message was for the conference and the election, but we still werent quite there, Olly Grender, a Liberal Democrat upper-house lawmaker and election strategist, said in an interview at her partys conference in Glasgow, Scotland. And then last week we watched in astonishment as George Osborne, and then Theresa May, and then David Cameron delivered our message with absolute clarity.

David Cameron, U.K. prime minister, stands at a podium as he addresses delegates at the Conservative party's annual conference in Birmingham, on Oct. 1, 2014.

The Liberal Democrats are meeting in Glasgow this week having undergone a battering since they went into a coalition with Cameron four years ago. Adrift in the polls, theyve struggled to argue that they deserve credit for things that have gone well, such as the economic recovery, rather than just blame for whats gone badly, such as welfare cuts. And they havent found a way to convince non-Tory voters that Liberal Democrats have been a moderating influence on the Tory prime ministers government.

According to Anthony Wells of polling company YouGov Plc, the Tories would need a lead of at least seven percentage points over the opposition Labour Party to have a hope of getting a parliamentary majority allowing them to govern alone because of the way Britains electoral system works.

Nick Clegg changes outfit four times in a day, but plumps for scruffy shirt and trousers for conference address

Throughout the day the deputy Prime Minister had no fewer than three more outfit changes.

Hours after appearing on the BBC, Sky and other media outlets the Liberal Democrat leader appeared at a school in Bearsden, Glasgow in a dress-downed look.

Wearing a button down blue shirt with dark buttons and a fashionable blue detail on the inside of his colour he greeted school children and took part in a cooking lesson.

Although the focus of the visit was supposed to be on the Liberal Democrat leader's free school meals programme debate leapt immediately to his trousers.

It was unclear whether the deputy Prime Minister's battered dark blue pair were jeans or chinos and Mr Clegg himself confirmed that he did not know which type of trousers he was wearing.

Hours later Mr Clegg appeared on stage in a subtly different pair of blue trousers, identifiable as a new pair only by the different style of pockets. He had also changed into another, darker, open necked shirt.

The Liberal Democrat leader was joined at the Glasgow school by his wife Miriam who wore a red silk blouse, skinny black trousers and a pair of simple black court shoes.

Casual dressing is becoming something of a theme at the Liberal Democrat conference with senior figures appearing to be competing for who can put together scruffy look before they take to the podium in Glasgow.

Yesterday Danny Alexander wore no tie, open necked shirt and no jacket. the Chief Secretary to the Treasury, even tried out some new contact lenses for his speech on the economy.

This morning, Tim Farron, the party's president chose a similar look for a debate on housing.
