In case you missed it, Tim Farron’s interview on yesterday’s Andrew Marr Show is here in full on BBC iPlayer (starting at 35:43) or here in a shorter clip.
Standing, well wrapped up, in snowy Cumbria, Tim is in typically robust form. He pays tribute to Chris Huhne and says he “wants and expects” him to be back in government soon. He says that the LibDems are concentrating on being “collegiate not destructive” in coalition by ‘behaving like grown-ups’. He pays warm tribute to Ed Davey’s environmentalist credentials and covers a wide range of policy issues.

Lib Dem MP says another Lib Dem MP is quite good, shock!
Tim Farron was great. All LibDem MPs expecially Ministers should follow his method and actually ANSWER the question that is asked.
Tim did very well on Marr yesterday!
In his presidential campaign he promised to make us feel proud to be Lib Dems again – and he’s doing just that!
