Default Target the lib dems

I seriously think we should target the Lib Dems. UKIP is pretty much a libertarian party. I was wondering whether Lib Dem members actually consider themselves liberal and democratic.

http://www.ldys.org.uk/forum/viewfor...14ec90630a0dfb

It would seem they do.

Have they no idea what they are supporting?

The Lib Dims aren't Libertarian, they're new age Left Liberals.

The leadership may be, but the members don't seem to be.

So in your mind, that situation (think about it) means the Party is democratic and suitable for Libertarians why?

Brit, I think Tito is advocating changing the LDs from within. Are you really up for joining?

No. I am advocating showing them how illiberal and statist their vile party really is. Take their activists

Not me personally, of course not. It would take a concentrated (and, probably, official) effort.
