Liberal Democrat Deputy leader Simon Hughes is now a highly influential voice speaking out against last week's Budget.
A statement was issued by the Party in response to Mr Hughes speech in the Commons, denying that the Lib Dems were not in support of the Budget.
But following the comments made by Tim Farron earlier this week, it is possible that mass opposition to the cuts in housing benefit and changes to the way Disability Living Allowance is assessed, amongst other things announced in George Osborne's maiden Budget, will gain momentum amongst dissatisfied Liberal Democrat backbenchers.
It will be interesting to see if any other MPs make similar comments.
