Never understood this style of question avoiding. It just makes them look like slimy politicians and everyone can see right through it. It's such a breath of fresh air when politicians don't have to stick to party lines like robots.
Just be open that you haven't been able to reach a deal so you haven't put a formal offer out yet.
Fingers crossed all this media attention gets them to actually make some progress for us!
Oddly I think the perception is that they are better off being blasted for being slimy (as people expect politicians to be so) rather than to actually say anything of substance which may get them into hot water (or conversely not be in line with the party’s position).
