I've written before about what the Liberal Democrats can learn from our sister parties such as D66 and the Canadian Liberals, so the success of the Alliance - a smaller party in a highly polarised political environment - is naturally of interest too.

So… what do you think the Liberal Democrats can learn from our colleagues' success in this week's elections?
