Libdemologists: 54% Ming Must Go, 39% Can Stay


In The Times this morning:

The most damning figures, though, come from Lib Dem supporters themselves. By a margin of 54 per cent to 39 per cent, party voters assert that Sir Menzies should be replaced rather than retained. That is a damning figure, and he will be damned if there is not a significant change in his performance and ratings.

The piece concludes:

Sir Menzies has to project strength quickly. If he has fresh ideas, he cannot afford to wait for months before revealing them. .... Above all else, Sir Menzies has to ask himself whether he has the necessary fire in his belly for the task in front of him. If not, then it is but a matter of time before his leadership is extinguished.

He can stay as long as he wants.
