I don't know if this will happen. From the results I've seen, the Lib-Dems don't seem to have any options other than staying in the coalition, and keeping their fingers crossed that things will get better for them. Maybe it depends on whether or not the Tories think they can manage to get a majority on their own. If they don't think that this is possible, they have as much invested in maintaining the coalition as do the Lib-Dems. It seems like they are stuck in a rotten marriage where divorce isn't an option
And congrats to Labour, and to all those who took the trouble to vote, for whatever party
