Tim Farron MP writes: Out of the Westminster bubble

July 1, 2011 6:19 PM

farron• [Jul 01] Tim Farron writes: I'VE been away from Parliament for the last three weeks. My wife Rosie had an operation (nothing horribly serious, but nevertheless debilitating) so that leaves me at home to take care of her and the children.

. . I have also spent time organising a motion to Conference, recommitting the Liberal Democrats to the theory and practice of community politics. From my base in Cumbria I've been pestering conference reps across the land to sign up because it's vital that we acknowledge the serious threat we face following May's election results and the disappointment of the AV referendum.

. . I hope that in Birmingham (should my motion be accepted by the conference committee), we can have a real debate about the future of the party, and reaffirm our commitment to both the principle and practice of community politics. Meanwhile, I'm off to pick the kids up from school!
