Liberal Democrat conference/manifesto
Well, Jo Swinson is certainly making a name for herself. I wonder if her efforts will see the Lib Dems take over from Labour as the natural party of opposition?

The Lib Dems are putting forward some policies that will appeal to many more people in the country than policies promoted by Labour.
Today, Ed Davey is putting forward his proposal for a 'green capitalism', there would be regulations forcing financial institutions to be transparent about their carbon investments, there would be a relaunched regional growth fund, investment in new east-west rail connections in the Midlands and the north, and life-long education and training and a well-being budget to assist vulnerable people including tackling mental health issues and domestic violence. Add to that their embrace of the Remain agenda, and I think many would find that more appealing and relevant than Labour's confused position and step back into the 1970s.

What do forum members think? A recipe for winning or just more wishy-washy stuff that is more likely to turn off the electorate?
