Well – Nick did well! As readers will know, I think too much attention is given to PMQs, but given that it is – certainly better to do well than not, and Nick did well.

He played it straight with a question about the sort of real issue that hits so many people – home fuel costs – rather than going for a Westminster hothouse story. Keeping your home warm, and being able to afford it, is a big issue for many of my constituents – so good on Nick for picking that topic.

He moved a few places in from where Lib Dem leaders usually sit / stand. I’ve not seen how this came over on the TV, but it seemed to work well in Parliament – as he was surrounded by Lib Dem MPs, rather than having opposition MPs heckling straight into his right ear.
