You may have seen what The Observer said on Sunday:

“So the status of flagship pro-European party falls to the Liberal Democrats…

“That is currently a lonely position, but the Lib Dems have a decent record of taking minority stands that are later vindicated. On the environment, on civil liberties and on the mounting debt bubble, the Lib Dems were quietly but consistently ahead of the Westminster curve…”  (You might draw that conclusion at County level as well  (John Field))

“This Thursday’s vote is being held in a uniquely febrile climate. It should be about Europe; it will be about the expenses scandal. On both counts, it is a moment to reward the principled consistency of the Liberal Democrats.”
