Cable leaflets avoid toxic Lib Dem label
Shoo-in as Clegg successor latest to run without party branding

VINCE CABLE has become the most senior Lib Dem to be caught sending out election leaflets that do not feature his toxic party’s branding.

A four-page full-colour leaflet sent by Mr Cable to voters in the Twickenham constituency earlier this week did not feature the Lib Dem’s distinctive gold and black colours or the party logo. 

The Star was sent the leaflet yesterday as Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg fought off claims that his candidates were “ashamed” of the party during a campaign stop in Cornwall North.
