"Once back here I got to thinking - 'how do I get out of this?' Perhaps the really haunting spectre is that I would have to turn my back on the lake, and the prospect of the sword." Alan Clark, Diaries - 19th May 1999

Life on Fraggle Rock (or, in the mind of a Lib Dem)

Simon Hughes
"The Labour
Party has betrayed, sadly, what I thought were its libertarian principles"
Simon Hughes, Question Time, BBC1, Thursday 8th February 2007

Seriously. What planet is this guy on?
The Labour Party? Libertarian principles? WTF?

Libertarian defined: "One who advocates maximizing individual rights and minimizing the role of the state; One who believes in free will".

Does not sound much like the Labour Party, does it?

I wonder what LibDems are doing about the proposed amendments to the Freedom of Information Act is they want to preserve libertarian principles.
