Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia TYMOSHENKO announced on Wednesday that she had formed a new parliamentary coalition with allies of President Viktor YUSHCHENKO. Ukraine's parliament had been without a governing coalition since September, when the previous coalition broke down after YUSHCHENKO's party withdrew from the coalition in protest of TYMOSHENKO's support of an opposition measu...

Coalition politics may have made a historic breakthrough at Westminster, but could an equally convention-shattering coalition be in prospect in Scotland - with a tie-up betwee

Carwyn Jones on Wales Home today: “I am not the candidate who was opposed to the coalition, but nor am I the candidate whom our coalition partners would prefer.” I thought it was well known that Carwyn was not against the coalition?

Almost two years exactly ago, during the tortuous coalition negations I made this comment: The only thing that would make me support a Red-Green coalition would be a guarantee that the Government of Wales Act 2006 will be amended to give Full Law Making powers to the Assembly without the need for a referendum Others disagreed, they thought that the Red-Green coalition could both make the coalition...
