|

Voters want Charles Kennedy back as Liberal Democrat leader, a poll for BBC Two's Newsnight suggests.
Mr Kennedy was forced out last year after admitting a drink problem.
49% of those questioned thought he would be a better leader than Sir Menzies Campbell - who polled 22% in the ICM survey of 1,005 people.
==============================
So voters would prefer a drunk to a bore. Interesting. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

Surely it's only really a matter for Liberal Democrat party members to be concerned with?

Well yes. Assuming they dont expect the electorate to care who leads them. Which is probably the correct assumption.  _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

I don't think I've heard Sir Menzies Campbell in the news more than twice since he took over - obviously doing a good job, then. _________________ Author: “To the Ends of the Earth: A Snapshot of Aviation in North-Eastern Siberia, Summer 1992”

His speech today was a bit limp. It wouldnt have you rushing anywhere, except maybe for the remote. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

Hey Highlander, we may look stupid, us British, but we know stealth taxes and stealth Scottish politicians sneaking into the House of Commons!
