There’s no prize at stake – just the opportunity to prove you’re wittier than any other LDV reader …
Here’s Mark Pack, my Co-Editor at Lib Dem Voice, posing as a very un-glum councillor while out campaigning recently. What do you think he might have been saying or thinking?
The winner of our most recent caption competition, the “Ed Davey in fete worse than death” edition – according to The Voice’s judging panel of one – was this one by Nigel Bennett, with an honorary mention to this one by Steven Acres.
Got a photo of a proiminent Lib Dem you think would work well for a future caption competition? Then please email us at [email protected].

Jennie: When I tweeted the photo a few days ago, no-one (myself included) saw the photo in the same way as the first comment. Myself, I still think it’s pushing a point to see the photo that way, but perhaps my mind is too young and naive 🙂
