On tuesday the Lib Dem MP’s walked out because they couldn’t get their EU amendment accepted,on wednesday it is accepted and to-day you are proposing a three line whip against MP’s voting for the amendment that your MP’s walked on in support for on tuesday.

How are voters expected to take your party seriously?

As neither a member nor supporter of the Lib Dems, I’m afraid I can’t defend them with any gusto.

However, the latest from the BBC suggests you may have your facts muddled. Have you got a link, perhaps?

I’d like to recommend EDM 982, which would be hilarious if it was a parody.
