After winning the party’s leadership on Monday incoming Lib Dem leader Jo Swinson has ruled out a pact with Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn, but said she was open to discussions with MPs from other parties who wanted to work towards a second referendum.

An anti-Brexit stance has given the party a boost, including in recent European elections, after a torrid time at the polls many blame on its part in austerity, student tuition fees and other policies under the coalition government.

We would like to hear from you and find out more about the past, present and future of the party from your point of view. What are the reasons for your decision to support, or not support, the party? How do you feel about its new leader and what are your hopes for the coming months and years? Have you switched allegiances towards or away from the party due to its Brexit or any other policies?
