ISN'T it time the Liberal Democrats amended their title by dropping the word Democrats?

They were, after all, the first party to campaign for a referendum on Europe, and their esteemed leader, the late Paddy Ashdown, went on record to say he’d accept the result whatever.

The new leader says she wants to overturn the referendum result. In other words, she does not accept the democratic decision of the British people. She cannot therefore be a democrat. If her party is behind her, the sooner they change their title the better.

And I’m not even sure they’re Liberal these days. The leader’s language was anything but!
