Do You Think New UK Government Will last Until 2015 ?

Jim Callaghan was forced to hold an election after his government lost a vote of no confidence in 1979. Under the Lib Dem-Tory plan, an "enhanced majority" of 55 per cent of MPs will be required to trigger a dissolution. But it's not hard to imagine the opposition plus the Tory right and the Lib Dem left joining forces to achieve just this.

A bit early to say yet, but there are certainly plenty of people in both the Tory and Lib Dem camps who'd like to see it fail. However I suspect that pragmatism will rule the day, but not without some strong whips being applied at times, and I'm pretty sure that even the sceptics would rather coexist than have to face the possibility of another Labour government.

Chaotic systems will naturally tend towards order, such as we see throughout the universe, yet within those systems there is still chaos, albeit normally only at a quantum level. There's no 'programming' necessary, it's the nature of matter.
