Held a members and supporters event with our friends at the Young Liberals. Guest speakers were LDER President Wendy Chamberlain MP and Party President Mark Pack. You can see the recording here.
Join Wendy Chamberlain MP and Mark Pack, Liberal Democrat party president, for a conversation on why electoral reform is a priority for the Liberal Democrats - and how we can achieve it. Find out more about the implications of Labour adopting PR as party policy; what our party is doing to campaign for reform; and how you can help to bring about change.
