Think of this as an experiment.
I’ve always been intrigued by questions such as, “What does the rest of the world think about what we’re up to?”. In a surprisingly parochial political culture, where the debate, if there is any, is about what the big countries are up to, what is the view from other places? And, as those nice young people at Liberal Democrat Voice have left me partly in charge on a day release basis, I thought that I should at least make an effort to find out…
So, from time to time, I’ll be posting pieces written on politics abroad, sometimes relating to British politics, sometimes not, most of them by someone else. However, whilst I have an interesting address book, readers of Liberal Democrat Voice may know of people from outside of the UK who have an interesting perspective, and I would welcome your suggestions as to who we might approach, so leave your comments below, and I’ll get back to you.

I’m a Dutchman living in the UK… if you want me to write something using my foreign point of view and/or related to Dutch politics, do drop me a line. I might even find the time to do it.
