Default Liberal 'Democrats', UK membership, europhiles

Should he quit the Liberal 'Democrats' (as one hopes he will) he would then look back and regret having joined them in the first place.

They're a nasty bunch, these Liberal 'Democrats' (not surprising considering they are committed europhiles).

And I'm pretty sure their national (UK) membership is falling - a few years ago they used to claim they had 100, 000 members. The last I heard was that this was down to 76, 000 (and maybe less).
