Please note Norman Lamb’s comments about an electronic all-member conference and uniting after the leadership election,
and
Tim Farron’s comments about relationships with otherpolitical parties and the 2020 general election, 30 tidal barrages, the Tory and Labour campaigns in the EU referendum will be dull, ours should not be.
They are both good, there is not much between them, they should be able to work together after the leadership election.
This format of audience members not being allowed to ask questions is stupid, an d makes for fairly dull meetings. At the Edinburgh hustings this morning I’m pleased to say it was completely ignored, and the chair, Jenni Lang, treated us like adults, letting us ask our own questions (with the help of a roving microphone). Somehow, the sky didn’t fall in, and everyone had a very enjoyable informative session.
