Charles Kennedy, Leader of the Liberal Democrats, told an audience of party activists today that the Government is capitalizing on a climate of fear over terrorism and crime to force through changes that threaten people’s civil liberties. Speaking at the National Liberal Club Mr Kennedy criticised Conservative Leader, Michael Howard’s 'time table for action' and attacked David Blunkett for using a post-9/11 fear among the public to push through measures antipathetic to civil liberties.

I wish that we had spokesmen out there making speeches like this. UKIP is dedicated to freedom, and in this aspect, the Lib Dems are our natural allies.
In the same way that Labour and the Lib Dems are teaming up for the Regional Assemblies, I see no reason why we couldn't make a joint stand against the authoritarian regime in Britain today.
