Simon Hughes MP emails party members:
We’re now just a few weeks away from our main annual conference.
If you’re already heading to Brighton this year, that’s great. I look forward to seeing you there.
The agenda is now online.
As well as the opportunity to debate with, quiz and meet the Deputy Prime Minister and the Parliamentary Parties, we have a packed programme including speeches from Sarah Teather, Tim Farron and Vince Cable, and policy debates on growth, housing and green jobs.
If you’ve not yet signed up to come to conference, please do so here.
It is a unique opportunity to come together with friends and like-minded people from across the UK and genuinely shape our party for the future.
Never in our lifetimes have Liberal, SDP or Liberal Democrat members had a better chance of influencing government policy.
Rt Hon Simon Hughes MP,
Deputy Leader, House of CommonsPS. If you’ve never been to conference before, this video may also help you decide.

I would really liked to have seen a motion about the situation in Iran and the potential Israeli attack of that country. Having said that we were clear in our 2010 general election manifesto that we are opposed to an Israeli attack on Iran, so I gues that policy holds. I wonder if Jeremy Browne or Nick Clegg will reaffirm that policy at conference?
Perhaps an emergency motion? I was surprised to see nothing specific about energy, although there are bits and pieces in other policy motions; and also, given the furore, nothing about accreditation. Maybe all those people with damaged identities have decided that the LDs are no longer a party that cares about them.
I think the next debate about accreditation will be the upcoming elections for members of the Federal Conference Committee…
