Half LibDems 'want Clegg out'

ALMOST half of Liberal Democrat members want Nick Clegg to resign as the party's leader before the 2015 General Election, according to a poll.

Ahead of the LibDem conference next month, the Liberal Democrat Voice website surveyed 500 party members at the beginning of the month.

While 47% said they wanted Mr Clegg to remain leader up to the next election, 46% said they did not. Some 70% said they wanted him to stay as Deputy Prime Minister up to 2015.
