However, I know that there are at least some true Liberals in senior postions in the Lib Dems. Cameron's Tories pay lip service to liberty as a way of poaching floating voters, but lip service is all it is when you look at the substance of the policy. Yes, there ARE some truly Liberal Tories. I don't see many of them on the front bench, though, and certainly none of them in a position to influence policy. @ #3: the main reason that I have not joined the party of my fiancé is because I am a dyed in the wool Liberal of the Mill school and I fear that there are too many people in the party who don’t know what the word “liberal” means.

Anyone who has been in an election against the Limp-Debs knows the scurrilous, underhand and utterly unprincipled campaigning approach of this group of pointless, political pygmies. I have an idea than the less people are guided by philisophy and the more by poltical expediency the harder and nastier and dirtier they will fight, to cover the absence of true guiding principles. As a Northern Tory, I have a principled respect for most of my Labour opponents, utterly wrong-headed they be most of the time, but by and large they are at least rooted in the communities they campaign to, the Lib Dems though are just the political equivalent of "opportunist thieves". I'd be interested to know if any Old Labourites share my view of the Lim-Debs and their particularly unprincipled approach to electioneering ? As to the "push-me-pull-you" party being Liberal - Dont make me laugh! There is more genuine Liberal passion and adherence to Liberal notions of freedom and fairness in Cameron's Conservatives than there will ever be in this bunch of second rate lefties.
