Like Buses

It seems Leadership elections are a bit like buses. Cllr Mark Harris Leader of the Liberal Democrat Group in Leeds has resigned effective 30/11/07. Under our power sharing agreement with the Conservatives this is the last day of his 6 month stint as Leader of Council. I wish him well in his retirement.

However we now have an enormous possiblity for growth and renewal. Over the comming fortnight I will be doing a series on "What are the Leeds Liberal Democrats for?" with a view to kick starting some real debate about a more liberal Leeds. I hope the leadership candidate's will find it food for thought.
