This is sad news. I’ll say at once that I’ve never thought a Libertarian Party was a good idea – not at this early and losing stage of the struggle, at any rate. Even so, I always wished the Libertarian Party well, and hoped it would do better than this.

It looks as if we’re back to a huddle of semi-commercial policy institutes and our own shambling, rather eccentic – but reliable – Libertarian Alliance. Never mind. Though it had some odd characters, the LP didn’t last long enough to bring the ideology into disrepute. And it did radicalise a few people.
