Risky. Daring. Bold. Innovative. None of these are words I’d use to describe the Liberal Democrats’ new website. It launched today, paying homage to the school of wincingly boring corporate website design from the 90s with lots of smiling stock photo faces and nary a rounded corner in sight. There’s hope yet though – in two [...]

The Conservatives want to cut inheritance tax; the Liberal Democrats want to tax mansions. Whose austerity do we want? At the next general election all three parties will ask the British people to pay higher taxes in return for diminished services and benefits. They won't put it that bluntly of course, but that is what the promise of "austerity" means: pay more, get less. So the issue isn't...

It's the people of Southwest Virginia coming for you next. See " Even safe Democrats feeling at risk " If liberal Democrats representing conservative regions of the country weren't feeling vulnerable before Tuesday night, they certainly are now. And, with that climate tax they're working on (the one that will bankrupt the coalfields) and the monstrous health care bill coming down the pike,...

Will Obama and his fellow liberal Democrats change their ways? I doubt it, because as you'll read in the below post, Senate Dems in the Environment and Public Works Committee voted to advance cap and tax this morning. Here's what the Wall Street Journal says: Tuesday's GOP gubernatorial sweep revealed an electorate deeply anxious about jobs, the state of the economy and the wider Obama agenda. We realize...

The new, cleaner system for MPs' expenses has now been published. Good. The system was rotten and needed a big broom to sweep it clean. All MPs should now sign up to it without complaint. We need a lot more change though. We don't clean up politics simply by allowing MPs to claim for fewer train tickets. Liberal Democrats offer real change that will transform politics. We'd start with a fair, proportional...

There have always been two main sides of the European debate in the UK, and both centre on sovereignty. Even us Liberal Democrats, the most pro European party in the UK, often fall into the whole, we will not compromise our sovereignty in Europe.

the mail is not acting realistically. Unfortunately once the lisbontreaty is in law David Cameron can do no nothing about it, nor any conservative leader howevever eurosceptic they are.
