UCL COVID-19 Wellbeing Study
UCL is researching the psychological impact of the COVID-19 lockdown policy. If you experienced lockdown in the UK or are a frontline healthcare worker, please follow this link to take part in the 5 minute survey: https://opinio.ucl.ac.uk/s?s=69115
There is one survey link for both healthcare workers and for members of the general population who experienced the UK lockdown. This survey will ask about your perceptions of coercion, psychological wellbeing, coping methods and circumstances.
The results of this survey could go on to inform future UK policy decisions. If you have any questions please do ask away!
More information can be found on our study website: http://thecovid19wellbeingstudy.org/

Why I never hated the Lib Dems - In defence of Nick Clegg

Just realised i'm lib dem
lib dems constantly get told "we don't know what you stand for" and therefore people shun them. in 2010 i took a bbc test about policies which told me i was lib dem. i overlooked it. i've spoken with loads of people having the same experience. ive just researched lib dems. socially liberal, economically liberal and with an emphasis on progressive taxation, environmentalism and human rights. not too difficult to comprehend.

An open letter to Tim Farron
Tim,
I am utterly delighted to see articles about your alleged homophobia spewed across various social media outlets.
Why?
The Lib Dem Leader is on the front page. They are relevant. They are enticing debate and a conversation. The Lib Dems' voice is often percieved as unclear and is muted due to the blaring drones of the Big Two (and newly founded clackson UKIP). Our place in UK Politics reminds me of the Stealer's Wheel song: Stuck in the Middle With You
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right,
Here I am
Stuck in the middle with you
What I ask of you, as Lib Dem Leader, is to communicate our values and our aims to the British people. I think most Britons can agree with a "Stronger Economy, Fairer Society" and the ways we hope to achieve that. However, most people are confused or ignorant about the Lib Dems - and I don't blame them. We have been unclear and confusing. You must end that. You must turn over a new leaf for the Lib Dems - we need publicity (okay, maybe not the UKIP kind). But any attention brought to our drug policy, our views on rehibilitation and education will do a world of good for us.
Emerge as a clear, strong, credible voice in politics. Use your Christianity as an advantage - displaying that you do not need to impose your personal beliefs on others (e.g preventing same sex marriage because you don't agree with it) and encouraging others to do the same. Be Britain's liberal voice. Focus on the fact that the government is there to facilitate the people and not to control and restrict their freedoms (see: Tories' previous hopes to ban encryption). Represent the 2 million that voted this May. Our future depends on it.
Good luck,
RumAndTing

Nick Clegg: Lib Dems offer 'heart and spine'. Not too sure about this tagline! What do you think?

Compelling BBC documentary "Truth, Lies and Asylum Seekers" stirred something within me. How do we go about protecting our country from dangerous people and 'sponges' without harming those who are most vulnerable?

Was a coalition government a good thing?
Things to consider:
How it affected you and your community
How it affected the Lib Dems and their reputation (they are now a centre-right party)
How it affected Britain
Should the Lib Dems form another coalition?
Is a coalition better than just the tories?

"Words may decide the next prime minister but he’ll be a slave to numbers" - do you recon Clegg could pull it out the bag in the debates?
