Liberals shouldn’t work behind closed doors – forward a transparent, open party!
When I was a member of the Party [resigned some months ago] I did contribute to the Members Forum and was surprised how few did use this facility.
Perhaps it is the nature of Lib/Dems, generally, not to cause a fuss – or perhaps there is another forum where the high octane discussions take place. However, given the Party’s apparent bleak future – I would thought that it was time for members to start being more outspoken.
I don’t agree with ChrisB’s comment that the Party ‘shouldn’t work behind closed doors’ – there are many who are likely to want the demise of the Party and who would make comments aimed at achieving just that on a public forum.
Is it our Christian heritage that makes Brits reluctant to speak out as this article in the New York Times [Abandon (Nearly) All Hope] suggests:
