When you give up your freedom an independence to your enemies in order to obtain a voice and say in their goings-on but you actually just become scapegoat for all of their faults and mistakes.
The best example of being clegged is when Nick Clegg, leader of the Liberal Democrat party in the UK agreed to a coalition with the Conservative party. Clegg became deputy PM and all was well for the first weeks. Soon he became a joke and every single problem that the PM, David Cameron (conservative), had he simple blamed it on Nick Clegg.

Pronounced 'Clegg-ed'. A verb that describes the state of being removed to a Purveyor of fine ales for the purchase and consumption of alcoholic victuals against ones will.

This takes place in the sure knowledge that it is not a good idea, that 'her in-doors' will not be best pleased and that you will most likely end up sleeping in the porch.
"Ouchh, my head is killing me, how did I end up sleeping in the porch, bugger I must have been clegged last night".

clegged in

Mountain climbers were using this word some 60 odd years ago to describe when the clouds moved in. Now lots of recent descriptions on the Urban Dictionary seem to have become a competition to see who can be the most foul-mouthed. Brian Sutch Vernon, B.C. Canada
