I think its a forgone conclusion that Vince will take over and I'm sure he will do a great job. We shall see from his policies if he's wrong too. He will be a better leader for the Country and will start to rebuild the LD's.
Hopefully the LD's will become a better alternative than Labour who have been wrong for the last 100 years without learning a thing about leading the Country.
Hear hear.

Labour is a danger to us all, even its supporters although, of course, they don't believe it.

Even the Limp Dems are to be preferred... to a very limited extent. The problem with them really, which is how they acquired their name, is that they are rather 'limp' and wishy washy.

Here here. I'm not a member of UKIP but I do like his direct approach.
I wonder if he could rebuild UKIP, He's probably the only person who could, ahhh but what about some of the nutters in the party they would make it pretty well impossible.

The Bible says "Judge not lest thou be judged" It also says "Man shall not be with Man nor Woman with Woman for this is an abomination"
I personally don't like it I think it's gross; but everyone has to make their own choices. Is it a sin or isn't it, I don't know; the Bible just says it's an abomination; it doesn't say it's a sin, maybe someone can clarify on this Biblical point.

Re: Tim Farron Resigns

I wasn't a fan of Farron by any means and am neither Liberal nor liberal, but I feel that the way he has been treated shows up the extreme illiberalism of modern liberals. I bet they haven't castigated any Muslim members of the LibDems for their views on Homosexuality.

He always reminded me of GOLLUM in LOTR, in looks and attitude, slimy and deceitful

Re: Tim Farron Resigns

I must be many amongst the few who actually feel a great deal of sympathy for Farron. I didn't greatly like him or his very few political ideas But I feel he has been badly treated by the Media and by his party, after all he increased the number of Liberal MPS in Parliament.

To be treated like that just because you are a Christian is diabolical. It wasn't as if he was against Gay marriage Just that he didn't agree with Gay couples marrying in church.

Why ever not? Do we not need people of good moral character who abide by their principles in politics? Lord knows enough people complain of a lack of it these days
