You get this for every party. Indeed, you probably extracted it from a website with listings for all of them.

Yes but not every party tries to paint it's self whiter than white like the lib dems and not every party refuse's to pay money back that it got to fight an election from a convicted perjurer and crook
The lib dems are two faced they tell people one thing in one area and something completely different in another they would sell any principle they ever held for just a wee sniff of power

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you don't much like the Liberals, do you?

Based on that, would the Lib Dems expect an apology if someone attempted to label them "a party of Paedophiles"?

I note the rather disturbing categorising of people are criminals who were simply 'charged with', 'prosecuted for' or 'investigated for'.
