That’s the message from Nick Clegg to voters in an interview in today’s Independent on Sunday:

Nick Clegg makes a final appeal to voters today to seize the “once-in-a-generation chance” for real change to Britain’s unbalanced voting system by backing the Liberal Democrats on Thursday. … Mr Clegg, trying to cast the final week of campaigning as a two-horse race between his party and the Tories, claims that Gordon Brown has “written himself out of the script of change” and that the Labour Party is in a fight for its very existence. …

In a direct pitch to voters, he says: “Let’s not let this moment slip. Let’s not let this extraordinary once-in-a-generation opportunity go by. It doesn’t come along that often. There is the chance to resettle things in a new way. It is very unusual and I just don’t want people to be bamboozled or bullied or frightened by the other parties into saying they cannot take a chance on big change this time. That is the main message. Let us not squander this once-in-a-generation chance – because it is a once-in-a-generation chance.”

the message needs to be refined as – the more Lib Dem MP’s the stronger parliament will be, and for heavens sake show that shadow cabinet, that government in waiting at the same time.
