Weekly Catchup, 3 Nov

This week, Daniel Jones made his LDV début urging Lib Dems to go to the Climate March.

We asked the Lib Dem presidential candidates how they would improve membership, and we posted three answers here: Opik, Scott and Fernando.

Our new poll on the BBC licence fee started a conversation.

Something for the Weekend returned in a video exclusive live from from Howells Towers.
