Liberals' Prospects
SIR.—Your correspondent, Mr. Joseph Sharpe, says: "Any truly inde- pendent and non-party journal should primarily consider whether any particular party's programme and policy would be good for the country and not whether that party is in a position to form a government "— this in the course of a complaint that the Spectator has not discussed the Liberal Party's programme and policy. As a liberal-minded person no older than Mr. Sharpe, may I ask that, in discussing the Liberal Party and programme, the Spectator also discuss the question of two-party government? To vote for the Liberals is to vote for multi-party govern- ment, and this is a more basic question than that of the merits of any single party and one which many Liberals, in their enthusiasm for their ow tr party, have not considered.—Yours faithfully,
