David Cameron has declared he does not want his Conservative party to form another coalition after the next election and would go into minority government instead, according to a report.
Cameron’s Tories are the senior partners in a coalition government with the Liberal Democrats but will fight next May’s general election on a promise not to form another coalition in the event of a hung parliament, the Telegraph reported.
It is expected that a minority government would soon collapse, triggering a second election.
“He’s very clear, he doesn’t want another coalition,” a Cameron confidant told the Telegraph. The paper said Cameron was preparing to fight the next election on a clear promise there would be no coalition if the Conservatives had the chance to form government.
“A promise in the manifesto not to do any deals after the election would make that very clear to voters and ensure they know exactly what the choice is at the election.”
An Ipsos Mori poll published in January showed that 65% of voters did not want a hung parliament at next year’s vote.
