Shortly after Nick Clegg’s Conference Speech to the Liberal Democrat Spring Confernce, I received the following email from the Liberal Democrat Leader.    In his email, Nick Clegg outlines how the Liberal Democrats would make Britain a fairer by making sure that no-one will pay tax on their first £10,000 they earn, and to radically change our corrupt parliamentary political system once and for all by allowing voters to give politicians their marching orders – for good!

The speech was well received by Liberal Democrats within the conference hall and throughout the country; I am sure that many people are now thinking of voting for the Lib Dems for the very first at the forthcoming elections – you can now be assured that your vote will not be a wasted vote.

Please take time to read the email from Nick Clegg:  

 Dear Ian,

I’m not the kingmaker.

45 million voters are the kingmakers.

Today I’ve used my keynote speech to our Spring Conference in Birmingham to make that one very simple, very important point. Some days the papers say our party is doing a deal with Labour. Some days the Conservatives. But they can’t predict the future. I can’t predict the future.

Voters should give politicians their marching orders – not the other way around.

We’ve made it clear how our Party will change Britain.

Under the Liberal Democrats, no-one will pay tax on the first £10,000 they earn. That’s the most fundamental change to the tax system for decades.

We will give every child the fair start they deserve, by reducing class sizes and increasing one to one tuition in our schools.

We’ll rebalance the economy so that Britain is no longer just betting on things, but Britain starts building things again.

And we will build a clean, open, fair politics.

Things don’t have to be the way they are. The coming election is a chance to get fairness and to get change.

Almost 1 in 4 voters chose the Liberal Democrats at the last election. If that increased to 1 in 3, we could lead the next government.

That is what we can achieve together. Thank you for all you are doing to bring it about.

With all best wishes,

Nick Clegg MP
Leader of the Liberal Democrats

PS. As the election draws closer there is a role for everyone to play in our movement. Thank you for everything you are doing. But if you can make a donation or volunteer to help your local party, it will make a huge difference.
