Liberal Democrats, Child Trust Funds and Peers

Perhaps someone can let me know me but i’m sure that its the Liberal Democrats who have been advocating abolishing the Child Trust Funds for a number of years claiming it was ineffective and wasteful, it may have even been in a manifesto of theirs.

So it was more likely to have been David Laws not George Osborne who finally got rid of them because the Conservative position on Child Trust funds throughout the election was abolishing them for all but the poorest families, but George could have changed his mind.

Speaking of the Lib Dems it looks like there could be no Welsh Liberal Democrat peers created among the reported 200 new faces for the Lords (former Welsh Lib Dem Leader Mike German must be gutted) if a grassroots Party website it to be believed, although the party’s spokesman is denying it will have any effect, it could turn out to be more influential that Welsh Lib Dems MP and AM’s are with the new Coalition Government.Any source
