Student 抗議する人s ハイジャック(する) Nick Clegg's 補欠選挙 walkabout over tuition 料金s

副 総理大臣 Nick Clegg visited Oldham today ahead of next week's 補欠選挙 - only for his walkabout to be ハイジャック(する)d by student 抗議する人s.

Oldham East and Saddleworth is one of the 自由主義の 民主党員 leader's 最高の,を越す 的s but it seems he can't shake off the students angry at his U-turn on tuition 料金s.

One of the 旗,新聞一面トップの大見出し/大々的に報道するs read: 'Nick Clegg shame on you, shame on you for turning blue.'

But Mr Clegg's blushes were saved by his trusty 補佐官s who managed to 押し進める the 20-year-old and her friends away from what the party hoped would be an 整然とした 会合,会う and 迎える/歓迎する ahead of the 投票 next Thursday.

As Mr Clegg entered the supermarket to shake the 手渡すs of shoppers and charm checkout girls Jennifer waved her 握りこぶし.

And even though the students had heckled and bashed into Mr Clegg he (人命などを)奪う,主張するd to have no recollection of the 会合 with these particular 選挙権を持つ/選挙人s.

'We are here to 勝利,勝つ. I think the choice in Oldham East and Saddleworth is much like the choice in the 残り/休憩(する) of the country,' Mr Clegg said.

'This is the wrong time for 不決断. This is the wrong time to duck 堅い choices and I think the people here deserve more than a blank sheet of paper from 労働.

'They deserve answers and what we are doing, the 自由主義の 民主党員s, is rolling up our sleeves to sort out the mess we have 相続するd from 労働 to 供給する a better 未来 for people here and indeed the 残り/休憩(する) of the country.

After his run-in with the students Nick Clegg struck a more 確信して 提起する/ポーズをとる as he canvassed door-to-door

'The choice is a 根底となる one. Firstly what 肉親,親類d of MP do the people of Oldham and Saddleworth want. I think people were appalled that Ed Miliband gave a 職業 to someone who was subsequently discovered to have lied his way through the 選挙運動

'Secondly, do you want a party like the Lib Dems who are in 政府 getting stuck in, used to taking difficult choices, to 取引,協定ing with the mess that we have 相続するd to give a good 肯定的な 未来 to the country as a whole or do you want a party like the 労働 Party that 簡単に wants to stick its 長,率いる in the sand and pretend the problem will somehow go away.'
