Lifting the Lib

Total Politics' Amber Elliot

reports
on some Lib Dem conference hijinks:

"Incidentally, I have just been informed about something to watch out for at this year’s conference. It is a game being played by three young London students with conference passes, entitled ‘Lifting the Lib’. Imagine a consensual and less painful version of ‘happy slapping’ and you are more or less there.

According to my source, it involves one young man taking charge of the camera, while the other two find a recognisable MP or their researcher. When they stumble upon a suitable candidate, they pick up the well-suited man/woman under each arm, lifting their feet off the ground, while the third young scamp simply points and clicks. While this behaviour is obviously irresponsible, I am told that it has all been taken in jest."


If anyone has the photos TB is up for running them...

PS He is also tempted to head down to Bournemouth and hover up some gossip and cause some trouble on Tuesday. A dreadful idea or worth it for a laugh?

Jeebs. They know how to have fun, hey?
Go for a laugh. Might be interesting.

That's my belief in Lib Dems being the nicest party put (in terms of their membership and not policies) to rest.

Let's see them try it with (Sir) Cyril Smith!
