Some joined campaign groups, some joined parties. Many were inspired by my colleague and friend Charles Kennedy, and the @LibDems’ principled stand – hardly consequence-free – against war, when the media and political consensus (with plenty of vitriol) seemed impenetrable. 15/ https://t.co/Xps8Vz9H04

@LeonDuveen @libdemvoice Of course it’s ‘your right’ Its also a pillar of liberal democracy to have debates, & as Paddy Ashdown & Charles Kennedy often said, to allow freedom of speech & expression. Didn’t hear calls for people to be thrown out the party if they disagreed with quotas for BAME ppl.

@AdamBienkov John Nicholson also says that he condemns “Twitter pile-ons”, and which are clearly bullying behaviour. But SNP members have orchestrated some of them, including the attacks on the late Charles Kennedy who he defeated in 2015 with such tactics.

Brilliant. 18 years since I first heard him speak (the Democratic Convention in Boston where I went with Charles Kennedy). Obama understands, message, delivery and the need to illustrate his points effectively. @Shoutout_UK @nusuk @UKYP @SELDNYoungLibs @EdwardJDavey https://t.co/FtyaZoZkWH
