Having looked at the other motions, the education one was the only one he felt he could speak in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34128264.post-9175669529727659842010-10-11T12:01:26.213+01:002010-10-11T12:01:26.213+01:00I found both candidates very impressive but having...I found both candidates very impressive but having seen both at close quarters at the Federal and Scottish conference I decided to give my vote to Tim Farron. He's a brilliant communicator, isn't part of the Westminster bubble and probably one of the best campaigners this party has.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34128264.post-77683930640464383332010-10-11T11:23:03.216+01:002010-10-11T11:23:03.216+01:00Well, I called it a 'Presidential Showcase'...Well, I called it a 'Presidential Showcase' because it cannot technically be called a hustings.<br /><br />After reading their Wikipedia biographies I find neither candidate ideal. They are perhaps too 'establishment' in their own way. I also note that both of them seem to carry some LGBT baggage over their voting record on the Equality Act which I would like to hear them resolve.<br /><br />The only way to satisfy my curiosity is to turn up to Room 1 of Partick Burgh Hall at 6.00pm tonight and hear them speak. All Party members are welcome. You don't have to belong to Glasgow to attend.KelvinKidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01118042006400401585noreply@blogger.com
