Conference has overwhelmingly supported the motion “Giving Citizens a Voice in Parliament.” Conference also voted to remove the provisions for a referendum on policies that attract one million signatures against.

The fact that the first vote has happened means that the vote-by-vote coverage on the party website has also now begun. The text of motions, the text of speeches, where appropriate, are all being hastily typed up and added to the running order, as and when it happens. And there’s a handy link to all this content from the header of every conference post.

Now conference continues with a speech from Jenny Willott MP and a debate on security.
