Liberal Democrat leaders, past and present, on Europe

27 Mar 2016

On Easter Sunday, why not settle back and watch some videos of Liberal Democrat party leaders (past and present) talking with passion and commitment about their views on Europe.

Firstly, Tim Farron, speaking at the opening rally of the Spring Conference in York earlier this month, with his message that "This is likely to be the biggest vote you will ever cast" and "Britain must not leave -- Britain must lead". The speech doesn't appear to be available separately on YouTube, but you can view it from the Liberal Democrats' website at http://www.libdems.org.uk/conference-live.
