Anthony Barnett (London, OK): The Modern Liberty Convention was launched on Thursday at a party inspired by Henry Porter and hosted by Vanity Fair. The Observer have just published Henry's call to arms. We have launched a new and original Convention website that leads with videos. The first videos are up - see Helena Kennedy and Peter Oborne. Sunny has blogged them on Liberal Conspiracy. (Er hem, my speech at the launch is here). I suggest you buy your tickets while you can.
