IT IS laughable to hear Tim Farron, the new Lib Dem leader, claim that his party is now the only real opposition to the Tories.
At the General Election in May, the Lib Dems were reduced to eight MPs and thrown out of government.
At the moment Mr Farron is more likely to fit his rump of a party into a people carrier, rather than cause lasting problems for David Cameron.
Quite frankly, Red Rum has more chance of making a return from the grave.
