Joe Grimond, Jeremy Thorpe, David Steel, Paddy Ashdown, Charles Kennedy, and Menzies Campbell all past leaders of the Liberal Party but despite having a life long preference for Liberals I haven't a clue who the current one is, does anyone else?
Bit of a worry although admittedly I don't spend too much time studying politics these days, I do have a passing interest, and this is probably the first time in my life (since about the age of 10) when I couldn't name the leader of the countries third party (without looking it up).
Tony,
ReplyDeleteMr Clegg is leader of the THIRD party, Cameron is leader off the Conservatives, and Compo is leader of the Labour Party. (apologies to Last of the Summer Wine)

ReplyDeleteWe could do with more choice of voting in local poltics, the Liberals would at least expand the two choices C or L, and independents. Last time it did not seem to be much choice, and maybe this also explains why Thanet is deteriorating, as there is a lack of political competiness.
ReplyDeleteThird party liberals
ReplyDeleteBut the leader of Labour is NOT fully compo though.
Bring back that drunken Scots bloke with the ginger barnet. At least everyone knew who he was.
ReplyDeleteDoesn’t that make the Conservative leader Foggy by default?
ReplyDeleteMichael,
ReplyDeleteOnly in one guise as the smart one, there were others, such as Seymour, and Blaymore
Ken not quite sure which definition of smart you had in mind, from ouch to attire so I’m not quite sure how to reply.
ReplyDeleteWith Baldrick from Blackadder leading Thanet District Council, Ken. And Woger Wabbit as Deputy?
ReplyDeleteWhat is the Liberal Party?
ReplyDeleteAs he's a toff, perhaps it's Bertie Wooster leading the Tory Party?
