Lib Dems see rise in new members since election and coalition agreement

August 26, 2010 12:00 PM

Lib Dem party membership is up a remarkable 14% this year, according to official figures released by the party in England. 4,500 new members have joined the party since the election and the coalition agreement was reached, and the party is having greater success in retaining current members than in previous years.

In the first half of this year (1st January to 30 June), Party membership increased by 14%. There were increases in every Region. This compares with the last General Election year (2005), when there was membership increase of just 1.6%.

Membership has continued to grow since the Election and the coalition agreement and the Liberal Democrats have been welcoming 4500 new members.
