Liberal Youth: on the receiving end of a Returning Officer for a change...

Having written a manifesto for Liberal Youth, I'm now going to have to back it up with action, now that I have been elected as an Honorary Vice President. Yes, I have been triumphant, in spite of the fact that I am not called Chris. Indeed, the Honorary Officers do now rather resemble the Philosophy Department of the University of Woolamaloo (look it up...).

Well, there may be some drinking to be done, in moderation, of course, but more seriously, one of us acts as Honorary Treasurer and shall, for the purposes of the Political Parties and Referendums Act 2000, be the person responsible for the finances of Liberal Youth. We also serve on the Appeals Panel, with one of us acting as its Chair, and, best of all, one of us gets to be on the Office Management Committee
