Quality Q&A with the "very quotable" Tim Farron MP

Thanks to everyone who joined us for our third online Curious Conversation event last month. It proved to be another lively, informative and well-attended virtual Q&A session with Liberal Democrat MP and former party leader Tim Farron (who'd kindly agreed to return after his appearance at our AGM in November left everyone wanting more!). The session was brilliantly hosted again by our very own Lucy Buck, and afterwards lots of people stayed behind to continue chatting informally. For those who couldn't make it, we are hoping to make the Zoom recording available soon.

Meanwhile, with the May 2021 local elections now confirmed as going ahead, here's one of Tim's inimitable quotes from the night, which was in answer to a question about how the party can break through clearly with voters regarding our policies:

"Well," said Tim. "Lib Dems have certainly never lost an election because our manifesto wasn't long enough!"

We are now planning our next Curious Conversation and some other great events too, so please do watch this space - and if you have any ideas or requests for specific events or guests you'd love to see interviewed, please email: lucy@wealdenlibdems.com
