My hon. Friend, who has raised this matter before, is right. The inconsistency in the Liberal Democrats’ argument does not surprise me in the least. What does shock me, however, is the fact that many people are disfranchised, and we need to address that. The consultation can be used to demonstrate the arguments and allow people to have their say, which would lead to greater clarity.
