One day policy conference kicks off with a round of media coverage

Today’s Liberal Democrat policy conference in London has been trailed in the media this morning, including for example this from the Press Association:

Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg will warn a generation of young people risk being consigned to the economic “scrapheap” due to the failure of Gordon Brown’s policies.

In a speech to a one-day Lib Dem conference in London, Mr Clegg will say school and college leavers aged 16 to 24 look set to bear the brunt of the worsening downturn.

He will accuse Mr Brown of offering only “pointless initiatives” in response to the crisis and will call for the creation of many more new apprenticeships to offer young people hope for the future.
