So what are the Liberal Democrat policies?
As Nick Clegg continues to travel the UK preaching his message and placing himself as the new changing face of UK politics, what exactly are the policies of the new look Liberal Democrat party?
The truth is that many in the UK, with many watching the live TV debate last week, have been attracted by the wise words and the manner in which Nick Clegg is able to get his points across. However, it is apparent that very few people are actually aware of the Liberal Democrat policies which are likely to be brought into the public domain by opposition parties in the days and weeks ahead.
While it would be wrong to suggest that there are no solid policies within the Liberal Democrat party, there are many who believe that due to the party's lacklustre third place for much of the last decade (or possibly 50 years) it has had a freedom to announce any policy it wants in the knowledge it was unlikely to be voted in. After last week's live debate the situation is very much different now!
In the days and weeks ahead we will be focusing upon all of the major policies adopted by the main political parties leaving voters to decide exactly which policies they would like brought in and the make-up of the next UK government.
