Eno fans rejoice

According to the BBC:

Mr Clegg was joined on his first day in the job by musician Brian Eno, whom he has brought in as an adviser on how to "reach out beyond Westminster to people who don't get a say in politics".

We are fans of Brian's not only for his music, but also his long-standing and public support for electoral reform. Think back to those heady days after the 2005 election and there was Brian leading the charge via his pledge. We look forward to hearing his counsel to Nick and to fighting the good fight together.
