My Liberal journey began, in many ways, when I was in my early teens in the mid 90’s when the nation was getting swept up in New Labour. Having been raised in an era of Tory rule, Thatchers Britain, and my parents having somewhat radical right wing views New Labour were a breath of political fresh air.
