It dawned on me yesterday, my wedding anniversary, that a baby born on the day I was married would, as of now, be ineligible for automatic membership of Liberal Youth, having reached the age of 26 years. That is a very scary thought.
It’s been a very long time since I was eligible to stand in Liberal Youth elections, but I am now their Returning Officer for their annual elections.
This is a reminder that nominations for their Executive at Federal level and for Liberal Youth England close at 8pm tonight. You can see details of all the posts available and how to apply on their website.
The elections will be conducted electronically with only those members for whom we do not have a valid email address being sent a ballot paper by post.
There are a few members who share an email address. We need one for each person when we set up the e-voting so if this applies to you and you want to vote electronically, please supply an alternate email address to me at [email protected] by 8pm tonight.
So if you’ve been secretly wanting to get more involved in Liberal Youth but have not yet put together your nomination, get on with it. I need to have it and your A5 manifesto by 8pm tonight.
