Lib Dem MPs should think about precedent they're setting today. What happens if Con MPs abstain next time Labour target a Lib Dem Minister?

LibDems have sadly played into Lab hands by abstaining today Lab using debate to create a coalition split despite their own double standards

If Lib Dems are demonstrating mature coalition politics I look forward to the larger part of coalition demonstrating maturity in future
