Been very interesting from the same perspective as the public really, an outsider, to watch the Labour leadership election. Dr MacAndrews is very smooth and stage managed, and, frankly, obviously just a vote for more of the same, nothing-to-see-here Labour politics. At least Jack Wright has some fir...

It has been fantastic to use my first days as Liberal Democrat leader not in some stuffy office in Whitehall, but out and about in the country. On our Breakthrough Tour, we've travelled to three of the safest seats in the country. Bootle, on Merseyside, the safest Labour seat; Huntington, in Cambri...

In the final stop on Charles Trevorrow’s “Breakthrough Tour” of the country’s safest seats. This was the SNP’s biggest win and the overall largest nationalist vote in the country. Press had been briefed that Trevorrow would play on his Cornish heritage and working class roots to appeal to those dis...

On his second stop as newly elected Lib Dem leader, Charles Trevorrow today visited Huntington for a notably American-styled rally of members and the public. Press had been told to expect an attack on the Conservatives as an elitist party, and as unable to provide principled opposition to Labour du...

Charles Trevorrow today spoke at a town hall in Bootle, the seat with the highest Labour vote-share in Britain. Lib Dem HQ had briefed the media that the new leader was undertaking a tour of the country’s safest constituencies, pitching to those in deep red, deep blue, and strongly nationalist area...

It is a distain for people outside of Westminster that has led to such a slump for Labour, and led to such a self-destruction for the Tories in 1997. Smug elit...

I'm enormously proud to announce that I will be standing to become Leader of the Liberal Democrats. Our politics is broken. Labour have not provided the solution and reform that after years of corrupt Tory rule, Britain needed. People are crying out for change, and we've got to get our act together ...

Charlie’s Footsteps: Trevorrow announces leadership bid Charles Trevorrow MP. Smartly dressed as ever, well-groomed brown beard and wide smile, chats to advisors and MPs assembled. He moves away slightly to check his notes, a more somber tone becoming notable already. After some rehearsing in a pri...

It's grand that this motion has passed. But Parliament is a joke when it comes to this stuff. Tories and Labour alike have designed a system of non-binding motions, civil service bureaucracy, and an attitude of letting government after government just get away with it. Well, I'm determined to not le...

I, Charles Kenwyn Trevorrow, do solemnly, sincerely and truly declare and affirm that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, her heirs and successors, according to law.
