Chris Huhne and Nick Clegg- but which one will lead the party by Christmas?
The clocks have gone back, frost now appears on lawns, the leaves have fallen and so has our leader, Sir Ming Cambell MP, the latest victim of ageism in press.
It was the ageist sentiments in the press that eventually hamstrung poor Ming, every time he made an important speech or announcement, savage cartoons and ageist comment would be published in our national papers, silencing the wise yet passionate words of a great and honourable man.
If Ming was black or disabled, this sort of nonsense wouldn't be tolerated, but ageism is one of the last great forms of prejudice that has yet to be conquered.
Who will replace Ming - Clegg or Huhne? I hope it's Clegg - he has the vision to lead us into Government.
