It’s never good when someone leaves the party, but I am sure some readers will be excited about a certain car numberplate coming back on the market.
L16 Dem was until recently on the car of former parliamentary candidate Andrew Duffield, who has been a regular commenter on this site. Now that he’s left the party and joined Labour, as the BBC reports, he understandably wants to sell it. He’s looking for £500 for it.
There were lots of oohs and aahs and shouts of “OMG, want” in the LDV office when we first saw this. Sadly, it’s way beyond my price range.
Maybe one of you will be willing and able to take it off Andrew’s hands. It shouldn’t be languishing away, out of sight. There’s an email address on his Guardian profile if you want to express an interest.

Does anyone know is H11 HNE up for sale ?
That’s a bargain but I don’t have nor want a car otherwise I would definitely buy it.
He should give it away for free.
Welsh Lib-Dems: how about we club together and buy it as a gift for Kirsty Willams ?
That another member gone, how many more have to go before Cleggie understands what he has done to this party.
It’s [email protected] – saves clicking through to the Guardian.
Email me if you’re interested. A snip at £500.
Very sorry to see you go Andrew 🙁 . Your talk on LVT at an Alter meeting in 2004 was one of the best speeches I’ve ever heard on the subject, and started me on the journey of being an LVT disciple. Given that Labour made no moves towards LVT in 13 years with huge majorities, I think you are mistaken in thinking they will offer a better future.
I was at Durham University with Andy in the early 80s – good bloke – true Liberal – what the hell have you done? Labour?!!!!
I understand any Liberal being disullusioned at the moment – but joining Labour ? – sorry Andy you have made a mistake there.
“L16 Dem was until recently on the car of former parliamentary candidate Andrew Duffield”
Narcissist IYAM. Answers a lot of the questions concerning the defection.
Steve Middleton : “He should give it away for free”
Like Mr Clegg has done the Lib Dems? 🙂
If you want to tell your voters that you have enough money that you can waste it on something so vain then go ahead. They will hold you in as much affection as Chris Huhne.
Anyone who allows Mr Duffield to profit from his defection by buying this silly number plate is a twit.
