    I am broken hearted this morning, We have lost the best MP we have ever had in Surbiton, We have lost Simon Hughes and Vince Cable. All tragic but we have to pick ourselves up this am and get back to work.
    Speculating about leaders wont help. Get back to the canvass cards and get out on the door step.Its the only way
