" What We Believe" poster updated by Mark Pack
Mark Pack writes today : "An updated version of my 'what the Lib Dems believe' digital graphic is now out, and designed for much better compatibility with mobile devices - http://www.markpack.org.uk/libdem-beliefs/ It's designed more for supporters rather than floating voters, as it emphasises what makes us Liberal Democrats rather than our immediate solutions to the most pressing issues of the moment, although Europe etc. of course do get a mention.
