This week, party members have elected Nick Clegg MP to be the new leader of the Liberal Democrats.  In his acceptance speech he said

"I want the Liberal Democrats to be the future of politics. Because Liberal Democrats have the courage to imagine a better society.  To break the stifling grip of the two-party system for good.  To bring in a new politics. Of politicians who listen to people, not themselves. No more business as usual. No more government-knows-best.  I want today to mark the beginning of real change in Britain. The beginning of Britain’s liberal future."

When asked if he believed in God on Radio 5 live, he gave a straight answer to a straight question: 'no'.  Director of LDCF Debbie Enever commented "I am pleased to see that Nick spoke honestly and immediately showed the kind of leader he is - one who prefers straight talk to spin.  I look forward to working with him".
