Simon Hughes has been elected the next President of the Liberal Democrats, taking around 70% of the vote against fellow MP Lembit &Oumlpik.

I was backing Simon (although I’m sure Lembit would have done a creditable job) and look forward to his taking the party forward over the next two years under Charles’s leadership. Well done, Simon!
