The new issue of Liberator arrived this morning. As ever, I turn first to Radical Bulletin (the Liberal Democrats' Private Eye) for the latest gossip:

There are three mysteries about Zahida Manzoor. Why did Nick Clegg waste a rare Lib Dem life peerage on her, why did Tim Farron eject Mike German from the role to make her the party's spokesperson for work and pensions and why has she now resigned from the Lib Dem benches?

If you want to know the answer to those questions, as well as read of the recent adventures of Mark Gettleson and Darren Grimes, the answer is clear: subscribe to Liberator.
