Chris Huhne gets nominated
Chris Huhne et al presented our nominations to the Returning Officer at Cowley Street this afternoon. So - Chris is now officially candidate!
Over a hundred constituencies formed the base of the nominations. More to follow I guess as we are way ahead of the deadline of 31st.
Momentum is gathering and we are getting phenomenal support across the land. The media make much of the number of MPs supporting each candidate and Nick is ahead on those numbers - but hey - this is the Lib Dems! One member one vote - and they are all equally important. And outside of the Westminster bubble - there are also other key members of the Lib Dems - the Welsh and London Assemblies, the MEPs and the Scottish Parliament.

Chris has certainly got my backing. Lynne there is one thing that I would love, and that is for you to bring Chris to Haringey. He is a great guy, and is going to make a smashing Leader. I can feel Dave Cameron and his etonian pals- getting scared already.
HUHNE FOR LEADER!!!!

I support the Lib Dems' opposition to the state visit of so-called King 'Abdallah of Saudi Arabia. Down with the Sultan of Nejd! Down with big arms deals, torture & theocracy!
