"It started with Iraq... But [the Lib Dems] have become the natural home for left-liberal Cookites"

Astonishing article (http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2010/mar/09/labour-lib-dems-left-cookites) in today's Guardian by John Kampfner (former editor of the New Statesman) charting how massive a disappointment the Labour government of the last dozen years has been and how for anyone of a vaguely left/left-of-centre persuasion the Lib Dems are the NATURAL choice.

Can Lib Dems lead the left?

In Thursday's Guardian, Jackie Ashley posed the above question, as far as I'm concerned, it is a rhetorical question, we have NO CHOICE but to lead.

We have the Policies, we have the People, we have the Passion.
