Liberal Democrats gather in Glasgow for party's autumn conference The Liberal Democrats are gathering for their annual party conference in Glasgow where they hope to start to recover from an electoral slide. Since entering into the Coalition UK Government with the Conservatives following the General Election in 2010, the Lib Dems have suffered losses in local campaigns. STV's Bernard Ponsonby has been looking ahead to five days of debate at the party conference that gets under way on Saturday. He warned that this might be the conference where frustration boils over among many Lib Dems as leader Nick Clegg failed to win support of some high profile members on the vote over military intervention in Syria. His stance on the so-called bedroom tax introduced by the UK Government has also led to criticism from grassroots supporters of the party.
