English Lib Dem Executive Report – Sat 23rd Jan 2016
Here's my very belated report on the last English Lib Dems' Executive (ECE) meeting. After my previous post gaining praise from Mark Pack on his own website: "Anders Hanson is one of the stars of the English Party because he does report back publicly on key parts of what the English Party is doing. He's not part of the 'don't ask, don't tell' culture," my forgetfulness in posting this doesn't exactly help back up his assertion! In the interests of balancing the need to keep members informed and in brevity, I'm going to do this as a series of (hopefully) short paragraphs on the key areas discussed rather than going through each agenda item in turn or repeating what appeared in my preview of the meeting. Since my last post a couple of people have got in touch with me asking for more information about certain points and I'm happy to give party members more information when I know the person asking is a party member.
