The AB of C has every right to comment on issues of this nature - in fact, I'd go as far as to say that he has a duty to do so.  However, when he makes a comment such as 'policies that no-one voted for', he probably ought to have looked at both Lib Dem and Tory manifestos - perhaps even Labour's as well - because he would have found a lot about what is happening in all three of them.  I was also amused to see that he castigated Labour about as much as he did the coalition partners.  Also nice to see a vaguely respectable attempt at opposition, even if not elected, because the Labour Party's record over the past 12 months has been pretty pathetic
