That 1,000 figure in the last tweet in fact is now over 2,350 since the close of polls, and compares to only around a dozen resignations. (Update – now over 3,500.)
Reading comments posted up online from people who have joined the party, there are repeated accounts from people of being long-standing supporters of the party’s values and feeling that now something extra is needed to support those values. They’re right – and very welcome.
If you’re one of the new members: thank you, your support will be much valued and very valuable.
If you’re someone in a similar situation thinking of also adding your extra bit of help, then here’s the link to join the party online right now.
