At last…

Finally - a Liberal Democrat leader that isn’t content with just working towards being a strong third party. A Liberal Democrat leader with enough balls to say ‘we can be in power’.

I voted for Sir Menzies Campbell in the leadership election - but with some reservations - however I’m now VERY glad I did vote for him, he seems to be a Liberal in principle but with the ability, drive & ambition we don’t normally see from LibDem leaders.

“I have had three great opportunities in my life: in sport, in the law, and in politics,”

“And now I have been given one more: the opportunity to lead our party from opposition towards government.”

One of the biggest issues I’ve had with the Liberal Democrat party, a party I’ve supported since before I was old enough to vote, is what seemed to be an exceptance of just existing.

We seemed to fade into the background and just pop our head up now and then. We heard speeches where we were told ‘we could be a strong third party’. Finally, at last, we may now be coming out of the shadows and giving this country a real chance at a decent future.
