To mark the start of 2012, we’re running a series of posts over consecutive days on the main challenges for the Liberal Democrats in 2012. I’ve already written about the four priorities for the party’s new Chief Executive, Tim Gordon, but as the Liberal Democrats are more than just the one man whilst he has four, this series sets out six for the party.
Yes, the party still needs a narrative.
No, a shopping list isn’t one as Neil Stockley explains.
Yes, it needs to be consistent.
No, it shouldn’t major on the bad news.
Yes, it should feature fairness.
No, it isn’t the job of the Chief Executive.
And yes, there are some signs of it appearing.
You can read the full set of challenges as they are published on Lib Dem Voice here.
