LIBERAL Democrat David Harrison (letter, March 10) says flying the Union flag upside down at a government reception is too trivial a matter to merit comment. But, on the very same day that Mr Harrison’s letter appeared, another liberal in the New Forest (there aren’t many left nowadays) raised what really is a trivial issue – what people wear on television!

Talk about speaking out of both sides of your mouth at the same time – but that’s the Lib Dems for you!
