Liberal Democrats looking forward to their biggest ever Conference

The Independent writes about our Conference in Liverpool next month:

One thousand extra pass applications are being processed for next month's conference in Liverpool. Security controls are being tightened and hotels in the city have experienced a rush in bookings.

More than 7,000 delegates, members of the media and commercial attendees are expected to travel to the conference, compared with its usual attendance of about 6,000. The number of journalists attending is likely to leap from 1,000 last year to more than 1,500.

The number of organisations, including firms, unions and charities, taking stands in the conference exhibition hall is increasing from 67 in 2009 to 90 this year. Record numbers of fringe meetings are also being organised.

More details of the Conference on the party website.

I have just decided that I won't be going. This is not a protest - I am very happy with this government - I just need the time to do things at home.
