Ming Decides

You know when your party has become increasingly irrelevant when your leader resigns and it doesn't even make the front page of the Times. I feel sorry for the Lib Dems, but with the Iraq war no longer a big issue and resurrgent support for the Conservatives - there currently seems little point to a second left wing party in British politics and this is refelcted in their poll ratings 11-12% down from 23% in 2005. Perhaps a new leader will make a difference and give them a new direction.
