Lib Dem Voice’s editorial line is neutral, presenting views from a range of people and perspectives in the party.
All Lib Dem Voice readers, whether Lib Dems or not, are welcome to comment on articles posted to the public blog. It is our policy that we will not remove or edit comments, other than in exceptional circumstances (eg, legal reasons), though we reserve the right to moderate abusive language and ‘trolls’ from other parties.
Queries or complaints about the balance of coverage can be directed to the commissioning editor, .
Absolutely any Liberal Democrat party member is welcome to get involved with Lib Dem Voice, and we especially welcome opinion articles. These should be original pieces of writing, not previously published elsewhere. Please to submit an article, or otherwise let us know how you’d like to be involved.
Lib Dem Voice is also committed to publishing opinion articles from non-Lib Dems which we think will be of interest to our readers. Please e-mail if you have an idea for an article.
Any personal information you provide, including your e-mail address, will not be passed on to any third party (other than any contractors working on our behalf), except:
1. If you wish to access our Liberal Democrat party members-only forum you will be asked for some personal information, including your party membership number. This information is passed into a piece of software provided by the Liberal Democrats that responds simply to say whether or not you are currently a member of the party, and this will be used to permit or deny you access to the forum. Lib Dem Voice is not given access to the party’s membership records and is not provided with any information from them other than “is a member” or “is not a member”.
2. We may use information, such as the IP address you are using or the e-mail address submitted with a comment, in order to prevent multiple voting in online polls or to help detect or deter faked comments. These preventative measures may include comparing data with other sites which are also willing to share data in such circumstances.
During party selection contests, Lib Dem Voice has voluntarily agreed to adopt a special comments policy to avoid breaches of the party’s selection rules. Further details are here.
The site was created by Rob Fenwick in September 2006. After getting the site going, he stepped aside in summer 2007 to allow the current management in.
