The Sunday Times has more information on Vince Cable - bold sections are the new details. The speech on the 7th September will outline party reforms, including reforms to the way they elect leaders. Cable would like it to be possible for a non-MP to become leader of the Lib Dems, in a similar way to the Green Party. He plans to fight any snap election in 2019, but otherwise he is aiming to be gone by Spring. He will definitely be gone by the time of the next scheduled election in 2022. As a side note, I don't think he has any health issues. I think he's preparing to resign because Lib Dems are repeatedly stagnant in local by-elections which they should be trouncing. As well as obviously not bothering to turn up to vote on key Brexit legislation when the whole Lib Dem shtick is to oppose a hard Brexit at every opportunity, which really pissed off his grassroots and staffers.

The whips are independently verifying each and every signature on the petition?! Good God, Malcolm Turnbull will certainly leave deep nail marks in the Prime Minister's desk as he tries to cling to power, that's for sure. It really is becoming a farce. Hope the politicians sort themselves out for the sake of the decent people of Australia.
