I've been a Lib Dem for decades and am shaking my head in despair a lot of the time recently but some friends of mine have set up a new group and they've been holding some excellent events.

Please feel free to sign up to this one if you are liberally minded. The first two have been excellent and I'm sure this one will be too.

The Lib Dems lost my vote over tuition fees.
They will get it back when they can tell me what a woman is.
I won't hold my breath.

That's why this new group is important. There are a growing number of us in it.

I am like a sucker and have booked into these events. They are good.

My Lib Dem MP and MSP could do well to book on too. For they are idiots.

I am happy to sign up, but they won’t get my vote until they accept reality and adjust their policies to reflect this.

This looks interesting. Is it it's own party or a splinter special interest group of the Lib Dem's?

theThreeofWeevils · 02/05/2021 00:38

What Witchlight said ^^ But it's another little shoot to be nurtured.

Thank you for posting, Bitheby, and Flowers for what you are dealing with.

Nah, no way I could ever take them seriously again after comments from eg Layla Moran.

If you start acompletely new party, obviously let us know!

Sorry but the Lib Dems have shown themselves again and again to just be pathetic little opportunists.

bitheby · 02/05/2021 09:16

It's a non-affiliated group but the founders are all Lib Dems and the events have until now all been advertised to and attended by Lib Dem members. It was seeing that a post about this event had been removed from a Facebook group because Liberal Voice for Women is "promoting divisive anti-transgender narratives" that prompted me to post about it here.

I've had enough and I'm sick of it.

Sorry bitheby I think the LibDems are too far gone. We need a new party that we don't let get captured

Brilliant, it’s so important and brave of these women actively challenging from the inside.
