The Party has been pretty bad at saying thank you to people who fly the flag for it. In recent years, Nick Clegg did try to remedy that by phoning candidates and campaigners and members of the House of Lords did a lot of that in the wake of last year’s General Election.

Of course we do this with no expectation of being noticed – but Jerry is right, it is good to know our efforts are appreciated. Full marks to Tim
I am pleased that saying thank-you is at last making an appearance in the Party. Not before time!
