An excellent idea from Halifax Liberal Democrats Love this idea from Cllr James Baker and Halifax Liberal Democrats to help our environment while not losing that key element in a democracy - elected representatives communicating with those who elect them:
All that animates Hunt is the prospect of entering No 10. My one comfort about Boris Johnson is that if he's promised us one thing, there's a high probability he will do the opposite For Liberal Democrats, the political choice between the hard Brexit menus offered by Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt might seem about as tempting as arsenic verses strychnine.
As we have in each of the Liberal Democrat leadership elections other than the first one (which took place in 1988, before the History Group had been formed), in June the Liberal Democrat History Group asked the two candidates for the Liberal Democrat leadership to write a short article on their favourite historical figure or figures - those that they felt had influenced their own political beliefs most, and why they had proved important and relevant. We placed no restrictions on their choices: they could choose anyone they wanted, whether a Liberal or not.
Questions for the Leadership Candidates We put in a request to the Liberal Democrat leadership candidates to answer our questions and these are their responses.

Only the Liberal Democrats will stand up to Trump, invest in the UK’s security, support Ukraine, hold back Russia, deepen our ties with European and commonwealth partners, and stand up for liberal, British values.
As liberals, we believe that true equality is achieved when individuals are not only free from prejudice and discrimination, but also free to fulfil their potential. So fighting for LGBTQ+ rights is not a choice Liberals make.
The Liberal Democrats' bold plan to restore UK leadership in science and innovation will drive investment, boost global collaboration, and ensure technology benefits everyone, not just the privileged few.
