As someone not politically active at the level of you and yours, I'm disturbed at the wimpishness of LD leadership at the moment. <BR/>David Davis was brilliant last Sunday on BBC Politics Show, with his non-stop put-down of the very superficial John Sopel. The only way that LDs can rescue this for the party is by supporting at arms length a candidate who will put forward Liberal views as well as DD will put forward his views (in other words, LD supporters to fund a good candidate standing as an Independent). But I can say that easily as I don't have the wealth to back it...dreamingspirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00324207120279777521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6606798.post-55739178118678730162008-06-13T07:21:00.000+01:002008-06-13T07:21:00.000+01:00Those who think LDs should be standing need some e...Those who think LDs should be standing need some evidence that David would have still quit if Clegg had said no.

I also think we should be standing. Nick Clegg made a quick decision only talking to the local chairperson, not the candidate or given enough time to talk to local members. An election should never be thought like this. We should be revealing where the tories are weak on civil liberties. And there were more problems with Simon Hughes like comparing it with Tatton, which is an different situation.Alasdair Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04380311147509564114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6606798.post-45029450806066913542008-06-12T20:18:00.000+01:002008-06-12T20:18:00.000+01:00Or a LibDem MP could resign too...Or a LibDem MP could resign too...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
