Conference overwhelmingly backs Coalition agreement
Cllr David Foster, Leader of the Lib Dem Group on Blackburn with Darwen Council attended the special conference in Birmingham called to discuss the recently negotiated coalition agreement which brings Liberal Democrats into a coalition government for the first time in over 60 years. He said, "The conference showed how much we have matured as a Party. There was very little opposition. Many people said they had doubts and there were dangers, but they were prepared to accept the risks in the national interest. Most people agreed with Vince Cable who said the Party has to move out of its comfort zone and its biggest comfort zone is opposition.
