Brief extract from today's Times: "Linda Jack, a member of the party’s policy committee, joined the attack last night when she said that Sir Menzies had been “over-promoted”. She said: “Someone can be a brilliant man and have incredible intellectual powers and all the rest of it but if that does not translate into leadership skills then whoever your leader is you have got a problem with them.”

You and I have often commented on how people would not vote for the Europhile Lib Dems if they knew what they really stood for. This poll would certainly be evidence of that.
As for Mr Campbell, I think they would have moved on the leadership if they didnt think there will be a GE within the next year.
