And it's all gone quiet over there
Over lunch today, a fellow Stakeholder commented to me: "It's quiet here, it must be because the Lib Dems aren't about"
Yes thankfully, parliament's rowdiest bunch are not about arguing loudly about cardigans and advocating more tofu on the menu. No because they are off listening to their Chief, Sir Mung Bean Campbell. I did hear part of his sppech to Conference. Only one sentence mind: "Democracy is in the marrow of our bones." Forget about: "A week is a long time in politics"; "You've never had it so good" and "Maggie, Maggie, Maggie. Out, Out, Out" that is now my favourite political quote ever.
