Watch Ed Davey and Layla Moran put through their paces by recruitment experts
Continuing the pattern of trying out different hustings formats this time around, the Liberal Democrat leadership election has featured a ‘job interview’ format. Ed Davey and Layla Moran were each quizzed in turn by a panel of recruitment experts, focusing in on the skills required for the job.

There are plenty more hustings to come. If you are going to watch one or more, don’t forget my tips on the best questions to ask and the worst answers to watch out for.

Hi Mark,
Just want to say I really like this approach to campaign hustings. Our traditional leadership hustings have always concentrated too much on policy and not enough on skills, character, background and strategy. Please make sure there are more opportunities to question the candidates on these factors, instead of endless questions forcing them to find tiny differences on detailed policy (which the leader doesn’t decide anyway!)
