Benjamin Ramm FRSA (born 12 June 1982) is a writer and journalist for the BBC and openDemocracy.
In December 2005, as editor of The Liberal, Ramm organised a "Kennedy Must Go" campaign to unseat Liberal Democrat party leader Charles Kennedy.
[1] After the formation of the UK coalition government in 2010, Ramm argued that the party provided cover – as "the cloak that hides the dagger"[2] – for policies that damaged liberalism.
He criticized the coalition on spending cuts,[3] the reforms to the NHS,[4] civil liberties,[5] the rise in VAT,[6] and the increase in tuition fees.
[7] In May 2011, he published the pamphlet Citizens: A Manifesto, featuring endorsements from Naomi Wolf, Philip Pullman, Ariel Dorfman and Peter Tatchell.
