Lembit Õpik 

Lembit is the Liberal Democrat MP for Montgomeryshire and is a member of his party's Shadow Cabinet, with responsibility for Welsh, Northern Irish and youth affairs.  The son of Estonian parents who emigrated to Belfast, Lembit's life has been consistently remarkable.  He is working on his autobiography NO FEAR OF FALLING.

This book is about the making of a modern young political idealist with an extraordinary history and an abiding commitment to the belief that politicians really can and should improve people’s lives.   Lembit is a political insider who can give an insider’s unique perspective on general elections, electioneering, leadership campaigns, the deals struck in the House of Commons tea-room, and much more. In an era of unprecedented public scepticism about the motives and abilities of politicians NO FEAR OF FALLING is a welcome corrective, and a tremendously amusing examination of what it takes to make and maintain faith in the idea of public service.
