LibLink: Gordon Birtwistle featured in Diary of the Week

By NewsHound | Fri 4th June 2010 - 7:52 pm

Total Politics has picked Burnley Liberal Democrat MP Gordon Birtwistle for its diary of the week:

I am just beginning now, to find my feet in this strange place (and to find my way around). To say the first couple of weeks have been overwhelming has been an understatement! I did not think that when I was eventually successfully elected, it would be as part of a party in government.

You can read Gordon’s diary in full here.
