**Manifesto consultation launched

For the next election the Liberal Democrats will produce a web-based interactive manifesto, which will use audio-visual communications as its centrepiece rather than the written word.

Commenting, Steve Webb said:

“This site is all about giving party members a real say in our manifesto for the next General Election.

“Unlike the other parties, we want a genuine conversation, and the manifesto we produce will be better as a result.

“The days of the mass-produced print manifesto are over. Our manifesto for the next election will embrace new technology designed to reach people who have been excluded from the political process for too long.”

The website is at http://manifesto.libdems.org.uk – note: the press have full access to it until midnight on Monday.
