Countdown to Election Day
May 30, 2009 12:00 AM
Today (30th May) we have been campaigning with Liz Lynne MEP in Evesham and Droitwich town centres. Yes, a lot of people were angry about the Westminster expenses scandal, and we understand your anger.
The Liberal Democrats have long argued that the expenses system needs to change and our MPs have fought against attempts to restrict freedom of information requests about expenses. In April Nick Clegg put forward radical proposals for a new way forward that went beyond what Gordon Brown or David Cameron suggested.
However, we have to acknowledge that these revelations are bad for politicians of all parties and are causing great damage to the reputation of British politics. There is an urgent need for change so that this will not be allowed to happen again.
