Britain After Blair

The Liberal Democrats could end up holding the balance of power in Britain after the next General Election. What does the Party stand for and what difference would the Liberal Democrats make in power? Leading Liberal Democrat MPs identify the successes and failures of Blair's Britain and set out fresh thinking for a Liberal agenda. New party leader Sir Menzies Campbell, in an important contribution, unveils his vision for a Liberal Britain and signposts the Liberal Democrat priorities for power. The Orange Book (published by Profile in 2004 in association with the Liberal Democrats) stimulated debate and was a major influence on public discussion of policy issues. Britain after Blair is the follow-up to The Orange Book , and its messages will carry similar weight. Up-to-the-minute, original, and persuasively argued, the thinking in this book demonstrates the Liberal Democrats' vitality and social commitment, and gives a valuable insight into how the party will move in the future.
