There is only one more week to go before you lose the opportunity for an early-bird discount to register for the Green Liberal Democrat Conference on 19th May in Nottingham. The draft programme is looking VERY good and we will publish the latest draft in the next couple of days or so (certainly before the early-bird offer ends at the end of the month.
I KNEW we had a picture of Wera Hobhouse lighting the GLD Birthday candles somewhere. Just found it - thanks to Liz Carver for the photo. The guy with the light blond hair is Keith Melton, founding Chair of the Green Liberal Democrats, making sure hs cake is presented to its best profile!
The 30th Birthday Conference of the Green Liberal Democrats is becoming a must-not-miss event for anyone in the Liberal Democrats who has even a smattering of Green motivation in their political souls. It has the same feel about it as the inaugural conference back in 1988 and the Party now is much bigger in numbers than back in the day. So do not miss taking your place at the conference.
I made my first ever cake in over seventy years to celebrate our 30th Birthday appearance at the Spring Conference in Southport and we had a competition to guess the weight of the cake for a £1 entry fee. The prize was, of course, the cake PLUS a FREE entry to the Green Liberal Democrat Conference in Nottingham on 19th May.
