Vince Cable: Liberal Democrats vote on Murdoch without fear or favour

I tip my hat at Lib Dem Voice and the Divine Ms Duffett, who had this first, but I thought it was worth sharing.

I was slightly rueful watching Jeremy Hunt, Culture Secretary, make the statement yesterday in the House of Commons yesterday. But for the Telegraph, it would have been Our Almighty Vince making that statement.

He was in good form, however, yesterday, when asked how we would vote on a Commons motion to delay the B Sky B takeover, saying that we'd have to read it, but we were the one party not compromised by dealings with the Murdoch empire, so we would vote "without fear or favour".

The video is also available here at the Telegraph.

Thanks for your comment. As long as it doesn't libel anyone, and isn't abusive, I'll publish it. I try to respond to as many as I can, but please forgive me if I don't. Sometimes there are just not enough hours in the day. I read and appreciate every one, even those specifically aimed at winding me up.
