Paul Keetch MP: Ming is a passionate advocate of social justice and economic liberalism, which I feel will unite the party at every level.
I know Ming very well and whilst I was Shadow Defence Secretary we worked closely together during the run up to the Iraq War, and I acted as his liaison with the Ministry of Defence during the conflict itself. He commands undoubted authority on foreign affairs and is a passionate advocate of social justice and economic liberalism, which I feel will unite the party at every level.
Ming’s experience, judgement and credibility will lead the Liberal Democrats to significant new advances. He possesses the gravitas to expose the superficial charms of David Cameron and provide principled liberal opposition to an increasingly illiberal, centralising New Labour Government.
