Lloyd Evans, The Spectator’s theatre critic, has penned an absolutely fantastic sketch of Ming Campbell’s speech today for us which you can read here. I particularly enjoyed his final thoughts on Ming’s persona,
“It isn’t relevant or sexy. But it’s thoroughly Liberal Democrat. Plenty of gravitas. No weight.”

I did look at his biog on his website but it didn't shed much light on this mysterious "experience". Perhaps it was of the woodshed variety.
