This week Nick Clegg gave a speech in which he likened his programme to the Great Reform Act of the 19th century. Tim Montgomerie of ConservativeHome thinks that was over-egging the pudding, and Jackie Ashley reckons that Clegg is still struggling to find a distinctive tone in which he can both defend his role within the government and also explain why people should go for the Liberal Democrats over the Conservatives.
Top US pollster Stan Greenberg tells us why British progressive values didn't translate into progressive votes, and insists that Labour would probably still be in charge if it had had a different leader.
Our panel also pick over the Labour leadership candidates. Tim thinks that Labour should take their time in picking their leader and do a little soul-searching. Jackie thinks it's a shame that Diane Abbott and John McDonnell are splitting the leftwing vote and that more female candidates have not come forward.
