What kind of self-defeating rule is it that requires the leader to be a sitting MP upon election? Did the people who proposed that rule not want to ever get back in power if the party were ever decimated in an election?

I think, given the point of the Liberal Democrats, they never considered returning to the old Liberal numbers of ~10 seats.

Also, the Lib Dems are the most constitutional party. Or, where that way 10 years ago.

Telegraph is reporting that Tim Farron wants to change the party's name to "the Liberals".

Why not change it to "the Liberal Party", like old?
