If there's an hung parliament and the Lib Dems hold the balance our MPs judge each bill on its liberal merits. Is it intrusive of personal lives and data, does it further trammel civil liberties, does it reduce freedom, does it centralise power, does it weaken the nation's security? If its illiberal, it doesn't get LD MPs support. That could be a non-negotiable position that could sit alongside the 'we're going for the maximum number of seats' line that Ming has to say. I suspect in a hung parliament both Brown and Cameron would set up set up Grandma selling market stalls to be able to get form an administration. I’d like to see the party take this line: no pacts.
