Welcome to the 33rd edition of Liberal Democrat Newswire. This time it’s a special mid-month edition on what the polls tell us about the Liberal Democrats. If you like this newsletter, the chances are other people you know would like it too, so please do share it. Thanks for reading, Mark In this newsletter: Between a rock and a hard placeAt the weekend, I sat in on a talk at the Liberal Democrat spring conference from a political scientist about what the polls say regarding the party. Given my often expressed scepticism about how well British political science really understands politics, and given how often I read information about the polls, I wasn’t sure I was making the right decision about which talk to hear. But very quickly it was clear I had, because Professor Paul Whiteley gave a clear, well-informed and persuasive talk which, despite covering in some respects familiar ground, kept on throwing up new ways of looking at things. It’s well worth a watch in full: [but sadly no longer available online] You can watch the other speakers at the event (Lorely Burt, Patrick Wintour and Ed Davey) too. All the videos are on CentreForum’s YouTube channel. Thanks – and please forwardI hope you’re found this edition of Liberal Democrat Newswire interesting, informative, useful – or all three!
