Chris Paul: Labour of Love (Free subscription) | 06/18/2008
Would add Laurence Boyce to the LOL blog roll if I could find a blog of his own. But here he is condemning Nick Clegg and the other wishy washers for conniving with the right-wing Tory loon David Davis. Clegg's PPC David Nolan - just 5,000 or so off taking the seat - didn't even find out about the dastardly done deal until he read the morning papers. Amazingly he no longer has...

The Voice has got its hands on the press statement from David Nolan, the Liberal Democrat candidate in Haltemprice & Howden: As David Davis is standing on the one single issue of opposing 42 day detention without charge and we happen to agree with him, the collective view of our Party is that we will not [...]

Last night’s fundraising dinner of Haltemprice & Howden Liberal Democrats saw the burning effigies of Chris Rennard and Nick Clegg, membership cards were ripped up and thrown onto the flames and guest speaker Lembit Opik was forced to flee under a hail of bread rolls. Denied a by-election to fight the right wing thug that is David Davis what else would be expected? Actually, of course, none...

Last night “an evening with David Nolan” struck a tone of LP unity for the most part. Nolan's audience (which he warned was not necessarily representative of the delegates) supported Ruwart over Root and Barr as the top finishers in an applause poll. His audience also somewhat favored the Restoration Caucus approach to the Platform over the PlatCom's alternative. Of course, these...

The delegates passed the Bylaws change requiring an initial no-amendment vote on Platform recommendations, which should put a repaired Platform in reach tomorrow—either based on the PlatCom's text or the minority text—if the delegates are willing to forego debating and amending some/most of the planks they adopt.
