LIB DEM THREAD/long:
I was going to put together a rant on Labour - but everyone’s doing that so here are my thoughts on the Lib Dems - who didn’t just snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory, but somehow ended up leaderless, down on seats & losing in places even Clegg couldn’t
They had SO much going for them. A new young “normal” leader, they had Corbyn on one side and Boris on the other. They seemed the sensible choice when all around were losing their heads. They had success in the local elections in their old heartland and their best ever Euros.
