We were given a little biology lesson on Today this morning. Laura Kuenssberg told us all about a clegg (pictured above):
The male clegg drinks nectar, and sucks blood.
It's is an old word for a gadfly - an insect which hops from one thing to another, irritating livestock and rarely settling in one place.
Nick Clegg, its namesake, will hope there is more political sweetness than bleeding ahead.
I am sure that irritating livestock such as Brown and Cameron will come easily to Nick.
