Nice to see the
Sun taking a tilt at the Lib-Dims, calling them the "
danger party". Not least, the paper notes that they "add up to scrapping the Pound and signing the European Constitution", the only newspaper to make even a passing reference to the partyâs consistently pro-EU policy.
It really is quite amazing that, in all the acres of coverage of the Lib-Dim conference, not one of the broadsheets could find space to mention the motion on the EU constitution
yesterday, and we wait in vain for a grown-up newspaper to expose the inconsistencies behind Kennedyâs
cynical opposition to the Iraq war.
