Category Archives: LDV Members poll

A week ago, Lib Dem Voice invited the members of our private discussion forum (open to all Lib Dem members) inviting them to take part in a survey, conducted via Liberty Research, asking a number of questions about the party and the current state of British politics. Many thanks to the 200 of you who completed it; we’ve been publishing the results on LDV over the last few days.

Today, we turn our attention to the performance of the Liberal Democrat shadow cabinet, and a handful of other senior Lib Dems. Reproduced below, in alphabetical order, are the full results of our survey, which shows how effective each MP is felt by members to be, together with a net satisfaction rating (those who think they’re very/fairly effective minus those think they’re very/fairly ineffective). The figure in brackets is their net satisfaction rating in September 2009, the last time we polled party members.

After a bit of a hiatus, the new LDV members’ survey is now live.

– John Terry’s sacking as England captain;
– what the Lib Dems …

Following the Lib Dem autumn conference in Bouremouth, Lib Dem Voice is conducting a survey of our Forum for party members on some of the issues that arose.

The survey includes questions on why you did (or didn’t) attend the conference; what you thought about it; your views on Nick Clegg’s statements on tuition fees and spending cuts; Vince’s ‘mansion tax’; and which MPs you thought emerged best from the conference.
