Sep 22, 2008 - When people ask me why I'm a Liberal Democrat I simply show them this video! lol

Oct 7, 2008 - It really is the perfect compromise between right and left. I say the politics of union and co operation not confrontation! Moderation really is a virtue, long live middle of the road centrism!

Oct 11, 2008 - They didn't get annihilated. They lost 2% of the vote and 1 seat in the 1987 election, and then became the liberal democrats. Where did you get that they stopped existing from?

Oct 14, 2008 - We need PR in the US, but for a different reason.

Retrieverman1 Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - This party sounds to the left of the current Labour Party.

merdufer Says:

Feb 2, 2009 - too witty and satirical to be effective mass propaganda

angryyld Says:

Apr 2, 2009 - I agree - and as he says right at the start, you need to watch it all to come away with a good impression - not good if you switch off in the first 5 minutes...

angryyld Says:

Apr 19, 2009 - Lol @ the tory/labour dinosaurs at the start! missed that first time!

Supermercado Says:

May 22, 2009 - Everyone's to the left of the current Labour Party.

Jun 20, 2009 - I wonder if John Cleese still votes Lib Dem

Erech01 Says:

Jun 20, 2009 - Lol, i didnt notice that:P until you said it.

CountFruFru Says:

Jul 15, 2009 - Fucking brilliant!

autofreak7 Says:

Aug 21, 2009 - this is a little bit hypocritical I think. He goes on about agression and pointing at enemies, but in fact this whole commercial doesn't do anything else than taking it out on everyone who isn't an Alliance-man/woman.

RationalResponsive Says:

Aug 29, 2009 - Don't be absurd! The Liberal Democrats are just like the other parties these days; all spin, no substance.

SWiNETHEA Says:

Aug 31, 2009 - Extraordinary. I don't support the Liberals, and I certainly wouldn't have supported the SDP. But he seems so reasonable and sincere. Why CAN'T reasonableness reign? Bless him.

RogetKing Says:

Oct 2, 2009 - I don't get it. What flag was flown from the Hammersmith Town Hall?

FranciscoCojuanco Says:

Oct 2, 2009 - Even is this is a political ad, it's pretty prescient...

suitov Says:

Oct 10, 2009 - If only. :(

redhexagon Says:

Oct 30, 2009 - The red flag was flying over Hammersmith Town Hall. Many of the people watching this on TV probably already knew that. The old Labour song "The Red Flag" had a few notes played after Cleese said that.
