First use of live video for a fringe meeting?
LDO was, as far as we know, the first Lib Dem organisation to have a speaker join a fringe meeting via the internet (Steve Webb MP at Brighton in 2002). But at this Spring’s conference we’re going one better.
At next Saturday’s fringe meeting, it will have one (or possibly two) speakers joining via video.
We’re intending to use Skype for the connection - a bit like the Skypecast that Ming Campbell did for the Taking Power policy consultation.
The theme is ‘Lessons from the US mid-terms’ and the confirmed speakers are Mark Pack - the party’s Head of Innovation, and Martin Tod, PPC for Winchester and one of the founders of Flock Together.
