Here at Lib Dem Voice we have finally returned to a semblance of normality after a very intense week. So many of you wanted to write about the results and the fightback and I’m afraid we had to turn down a number of perfectly good posts simply because they said much the same as previous ones. Thank you so much for wanting to use LDV as the vehicle for your thoughts, and for your good humoured patience.
You will see that today is once again full of opinion pieces, but they are moving forward. Two writers want to start a debate on what we mean by liberalism and how we should explain it to the electorate. Do add your thoughts once they have appeared later this morning.
Please continue to send in posts.
Just one comment on the Leadership election: whatever our individual views, as a team we do want to maintain neutrality on LDV. We are happy to take posts (positive, of course) supporting either candidate, but we will aim to present an overall balanced picture. The candidates have also been offered the same number of posts each during the leadership campaign. Please keep any comments positive as well.
