He's the leader of the Liberal Democrat Party - so the Lib Dem equivalent of Tony Blair and who'd be PM if they won the election.
As the Tories fall more and more into obscurity and irrelevance, the Lib Dem's slowly nibble away at their percentage and are - ish - a possibility to become "the opposition" at some point.
Hence the references to Kennedy pissing off people who are kinda important to him (namely Labour).
