SEIZE THE MOMENT

Over the last few days there been a number of remarkable opinion polls culminating in an extremely good poll for the Lib Dems, today. Things are beginning to go well for the party; they are beginning to come up with some policies that will move this country out of recession and beyond; they are now winning the ‘battle of the ideas’; Labour have failed, and the Tories have lost the plot.

Today, I received this email from the Leader of the liberal Democrats, Nick Clegg which I though you might want to read – ‘Seize the Moment’.

Dear Steve,

Today, a MORI poll puts us ahead of the Labour Government. Yesterday, a ComRes poll in the Independent put us neck and neck. Our internal polling in our key marginals backs this up. The coming months are a golden opportunity for us against a Government that is on the rocks and a Conservative Party bereft of ideas and principles.

Please help us seize the moment by making a donation of £20, or whatever you can afford.

Our General Election campaign will be our best ever - we are ready whenever Gordon Brown calls it with a fantastic team of candidates and staff. We will be seriously contesting more seats than ever before. The only thing that is holding our campaign back is a lack of resources.

I am determined that we succeed in places which have never had a Liberal Democrat MP before. The work we do in those seats this Autumn will make the difference to our chances.

Please make a donation of £20, or whatever you can afford, so that we can win more seats from Labour at the coming General Election. You can make your donation securely, online, here.

This week, Gordon Brown will be passing the government's begging bowl round the trade unions at the Labour conference. Next week, David Cameron will be glad-handing big businessmen and tax exiles with champagne and canapes at the Conservative conference.

We rely on you. So thank you more than ever for your support.

Best wishes,

Nick Clegg MP
Leader of the Liberal Democrats
