Lib Dem News says Galloway a curiosity, rather than a serious candidate
I love Lib Dem News. Even though I can find out a lot of things going on in the party from other sources, it still tells me things I don’t know. In order to get out for Friday, though, the … Continue reading
Saying farewell to a lovely, clever, Liberal Democrat – RIP Dave Herbert
By the time you read this, I’ll be in Dunfermline at the funeral of one of the first people I ever met in the local Liberal Democrats. Dave Herbert, Councillor for Inverkeithing and Dalgety Bay, passed away last Friday. Dave … Continue reading
Ian Liddell-Grainger shames the fluffy blogosphere
Animal bloggers are not that unusual. We have the eclectic Pink Dog and the ever wise Elephant for example, who bring joy, randomness and good sense to the internet. However, Ian Liddell-Grainger, Conservative MP for Bridgewater in Somerset, allows an extremely ill-mannered … Continue reading

I went to bed last night not really believing rumours on Twitter that George Galloway had eased out Labour in the Bradford West by-election in a closely fought contest. I wondered allowed if this was Labour talking his chances up … Continue reading

My unhappiness with Danny Alexander….
…or his diary secretary, whoever they may be, knows no bounds right now. Not that this is any of their fault, but I want to have a moan. Right now, I should be out having dinner with my husband while … Continue reading
The Budget – a triumph for Liberal Democrat internal communications people
Danny Alexander talking right now to Party Members I have got to say, I think the party has been fantastic in the way it’s been getting information out to members about the Budget. I still wake up in a cold … Continue reading

My Bob and the "Granny Tax"
My dear husband is not a Granny. And he’d better not be a Grandad for a very long time to come, given that our daughter is not yet a teenager. He is of an age to be affected by the … Continue reading
