Liberal Democrat Voice has learnt that the party’s planning for an early general election stepped up another gear this week with the return to Cowley Street of Alastair Reed as General Election Planning Manager. Alastair worked for Chris Rennard in the 2005 campaign and after a year off studying in Leiden, he was seconded to Scotland for the May 2007 election.
William Hill recently cut the odds on an October poll from 16:1 to 3:1.

Congrats to Alistair!
Let us hope that he does better for the party at a UK level than he did for the Scots.
He had a different role in Scotland.
