Nick Clegg has called for an end to the "mudslinging" in the debate on the AV referendum and for both sides to treat the public "like adults".
Campaigning ahead of English council elections and the 5 May referendum, the Lib Dem leader told the BBC that voters were turned off by "personal vitriol".
Senior Lib Dems have urged David Cameron to disassociate himself from attacks on Mr Clegg by the No campaign.
Mr Clegg also said he was standing up to the PM when he disagreed with him.
The deputy prime minister was asked by the BBC's Political Editor Nick Robinson, who is interviewing the leaders of the three main parties on the campaign trail, whether he should publicly pick more fights with the prime minister on issues where they differ.
