Well – it seems to be the coming thing! There’s now a cross-party campaign to introduce fixed-term Parliaments: www.fixedterm.org.uk

If you’ve read my blog before – you won’t be surprised to know I think this is a very good idea! And of course it’s always nice to see people from other parties – and none – take up a long-standing Lib Dem policy and suddenly say how wonderful it is! But in the spirit of cross-party campaigning I promise not to tease some of the recent converts too often when they forget to mention it was a Lib Dem policy in the first place!
