Why the lib-dems are shit

[brogdale]

I still don't get it.

Keep up at the back.

Ok, I missed that story. It just backs up what I said before, a sad and pathetic man trying to be relevant and judging by 'musical tastes' desperately trying to be down with the youth.

Lib Dem split emerges over policy of seeking second EU referendum

4:4?
5:3?
6:2?
or 7:1?

Have I missed any permutation?

LibDems bravely defending the rights of multi-millionaires

The Southwark Lib Dem councillor, Adele Morris, has tried to help broker a solution.

.......
“Would he be saying the same thing if it was a council flat? Is it to do with the presumption that these people are rich and they get what they deserve buying a flat like that? I don’t agree with that, I think everybody is entitled to a certain amount of privacy.”

A flat in the block currently costs in the region of £4.5m. The final available penthouses are being marketed at £5.95m.

Perhaps both members are involved in this impasse

Lib Dems bid to be voice of Remain voters after surprise surge in Witney byelection

 

[Leftwinger1992]

A good result for the Lib Dems that does provide them with some reason for encouragement going forward. I wonder how many more seats they can win by pitching themselves as the "party of Remain voters".

None - they will not win back any seats by doing that - places where remain won the the referendum vote are the places that already convincingly rejected the lib-dems - and where the other parties will be selecting remain-friendly candidates. This was yet another lib-dem potemkin by-election (see every single one in the last parliament) result produced by a series of unrepeatable factors or ones that will no longer be live come the 2020 election. The twats.

Yes, but their by-election performance can really only be seen as "good" in the sense that it drew them back from the brink and restored most of their base...

Lib Dem votes in Witney:

By election: 11,611

2015: 3,953

2010: 11,233

2005: 12,415

2001: 10,000

1997: 11,202

1992: 13,393

1987: 14,994

True, and neither was this a remarkably bad tory result, (in historical context)....

We'll have to wait and see. I do think they have an opportunity to win over a lot of remain voters and also disaffected and moderate labour party voters fed up with the direction the party is heading under Jeremy Corbyn. There was also a recent poll which showed more voters identify themselves as being 'centrist' than any other position, so there is some reason for encouragement.

 

[DotCommunist]

I don't see centrism as it defined now as anything hopeful.

Lib Dems fined £20,000 for undeclared election spending

The Liberal Democrats have been hit with a maximum £20,000 fine by the Electoral Commission for failing to declare hundreds of items of campaign spending at the general election.

The watchdog has notified the police of a possible electoral offence after 307 payments totalling £184,676 were found to be missing from the Liberal Democrats’ spending return “without a reasonable excuse”.

In addition, invoices supporting 122 out of the 307 payments were
missing from the return. It found the declaration to the Electoral Commission may have been signed recklessly, as there was evidence indicating some people in the party knew it was incorrect

This should not come as any kind of surprise.

Do you mean people on the Momentum Facebook page, who do not have to be supporters to post? Or do you mean people who support Momentums Facebook page?
