David Laws has dropped me a line...

...and I expect he's dropped you one too.

But in case not - he'd like everyone to pile in with their thoughts on the manifesto. Which sounds like an excellent plan.

If you don't submit - you can't say you weren't asked...

So here's the letter and the links you need.

Lets get submitting!

Dear Richard,

As you know, as a Liberal Democrat member you play a key role

in deciding our policy.

We’re unique, no other party does this, and I want to make sure

that every member has the chance to make their voice heard as

we develop our 2015 manifesto.

Following the approval of our Manifesto Themes Paper by party 

conference we’re now moving onto the next stage of the consultation.

Firstly, we’re launching our new Manifesto Website, where every 

member can join the debate and shape the next manifesto.

The site is open to every member, click here to log in using the  

email address that you have received this email from.

Secondly we’re providing material to help local parties hold their 

own local discussions and running a regional manifesto roadshow 

which will visit:

o   Leeds – 12^th November

o   Yeovil – 14^th November

o   Tregynon – 16^th November

o   London – 4^th December

o   Birmingham – January (tbc)

o   Aberdeen – 30^th March

o   Welsh Spring Conference (tbc)

You can RSVP to these events through the manifesto website.

Before 2010 it might have seemed fanciful for anyone to say that our 

manifesto would end up as Government policy. Now we’ve all seen 

the very real difference we have made by putting that plan into action 

in the last three years

Our 2015 manifesto is perhaps the most exciting in the party’s history, 

please do join in and make sure your voice is heard.

Best wishes,

David Laws MP
