Two of the best pieces of coverage of the Liberal Democrat leadership contest came from opposite ends of the party’s internal political spectrum: the weekly newsletters from Liberal Reform and the candidate questionnaire from Liberator magazine.

The latter has long since had an interest in a core votes type strategy, predating the current form and popularity of the idea that was kicked-off by my pamphlet with David Howarth in 2015. No surprise then that this featured in Liberator‘s coverage of the contest:

Just the right approach.

(If you’re new to the idea of a core votes strategy, there’s an introduction here as well as that 2015 pamphlet available in full for free here.)
