I vaguely remember that there was a specific part of the questionnaire devoted to 'young people'. I cannot remember the details.<br /><br />It is easy to see how a few 'young people' (actually, parents of the young people) could dominate that part of the questionnaire and provoke a STATISTICALLY inaccurate result.<br /><br />Mr Eldridge would, of course, be unaware of the fix.Junicannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-63524410461644384602009-09-25T00:18:29.709+01:002009-09-25T00:18:29.709+01:00Liberal Vision and Mark are described by Iain Dale...Liberal Vision and Mark are described by Iain Dale as: "He is firmly on the libertarian wing of the Lib Dems and is viewed as a right wing extremist by many in the party’s hierarchy."<br /><br />Mark is viewed to be the 47th most influential Lib Dem. The principle problem is that the Lib Dems inherited David Owen's Social Democrats. Certainly the Whigs of the 19th century and their free trade, liberal agenda is literally a 100 years ago. <br /><br />Anyway Mark was kind enough to publish my article on his blog.<br /><br />Dave Atherton<br /><br />http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/liberaldemocrats/6206525/Top-50-most-influential-Liberal-Democrats-50-26.html<br /><br />http://www.liberal-vision.org/2009/09/24/guest-post-my-1st-libdem-conference-libertarianism-late-nights-and-luscious-lynne/DaveAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07249090980650806030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-86710047289225520002009-09-24T20:52:41.368+01:002009-09-24T20:52:41.368+01:00Good write up; pleasure to meet you in person.Good write up; pleasure to meet you in person.Haribohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11353292402895107855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-66987879582221164912009-09-24T18:03:36.395+01:002009-09-24T18:03:36.395+01:00Junican: Someone did indeed pick Mr Eldridge up on...Junican: Someone did indeed pick Mr Eldridge up on his assertion that the kids had asked for the measure themselves.

You went down there...Dick, why not just come clean. You went down there because you could sniff a bucket load of free nosh, me, me, me that’s all it was…but most shocking of all, £45 for a room, I wouldn’t have gone above £40, or even £30, well perhaps £35. <br /><br />Here in my neck of the woods there’re having £25 specials…but you do have do a day’s potato picking, or worse chicken catching to make up the difference. I had to do a full shift once catching...I don't mind telling you there are some big heavy birds out there - some even have tits too.<br /><br />Anyway, you tapped Chris Snowden’s wallet for a round before just before going into the meeting, I don’t suppose you bought him one back then…nice to live cheap – eh Dick?<br /><br />I’m shocked by the way that any Lib Dems smoke, aren’t they all carrot crunchers, or is that what they put between their toes as a fashion statement? But it’s good to hear so many of them came to the meeting, that must be a positive move forward for the cause.<br /><br />But what I really want to know is this…was Mark Oaten there flogging his book, or was he rummaging around outside in the bushes looking for rent boys? Ok, so there weren’t any bushes handy…maybe he brought his own plastic concoctions and his own bob-a-blowjob noncers – but was he there?<br /><br />Wife-Beater, the only draught?

I could not hear most of his speech (bad recording), but I did pick up on one relevant remark, and that was, "This is what the young people of Liverpool want us to do (or words to that effect)"<br /><br />I took part in the 'consultation exercise' re the film ban, and at no time was it stated that there had been 'consultations' with young people in Liverpool.<br /><br />It is manifestly true that this chap was LYING. The youth consultation did not take place. He lied.<br /><br />UNLESS..... he meant that, in the consultation exercise, SOME respondents were young, and some of them were in favour of the ban. In which case, he could say, "Young people in Liverpool have told us..." - which could be three out of three thousand.<br /><br />It would have been interesting if some person in the audience had asked the question, "Precisely HOW MANY young people in Liverpool told you...."Junicannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-8102002656424017652009-09-24T00:28:03.149+01:002009-09-24T00:28:03.149+01:00So they're small-l liberals to a man (or woman...So they're small-l liberals to a man (or woman) until it comes to presenting themselves publicly, at which point they become fascists?<br /><br />No wonder I don't vote for them any more.Frank Davishttp://frank-davis.livejournal.com/noreply@blogger.com
