Cameron So as you can see Nick. You get Deputy Prime Minister and your colleagues a fair share of Cabinet posts. But I'm afraid we'll have to drop some of your pledges.

Clegg Which ones?

Cameron Like not raising tuition fees. Which you said you definitely wouldn't do, under any circumstances.

(pause)

Clegg So, how much is a Deputy PM's salary?

To the tune of the folk song 'Do You Love an Apple?' (here's a link to that folk song sung by the Bothy Band):




Do you love an apple? Do you love a pear?
Do you love a Tory with arrogant air?
Still I love him; must support him;
I'll go with him wherever he goes.

Before I was with him, I spoke for the poor.
Now that I'm with him, I can't any more.
But still I love him; must support him;
I'll go with him wherever he goes.

I thought it a crime to go into Iraq,
But now that I'm with him, must take such things back.
But still I love him; must support him;
I'll go with him wherever he goes.

Before I was with him, my party did grow.
Now that I'm with him, it's polling down low.
But still I love him; must support him;
I'll go with him wherever he goes.

When real jobs are going, he'll choose his own friends.
When he needs window-dressing, I'm there for his ends.
But still I love him; must support him;
I'll go with him wherever he goes.

Do you love an apple? Do you love a pear?
Do you love a Tory with arrogant air?
Still I love him; must support him;
I'll go with him wherever he goes.
