Nous aussi, on aimerait bien que tu nous laisses une place.
------------ more proper to put a comma after [aussi] ?
From a English-Grammar POV, it seemed odd to have
two Subjects in a sentence. So i've decided to view
[Nous aussi] as parenthetical. (so the Comma
helps)

[Nous aussi] -- always pron. with liaison ?
(note how (Hibou and) i tend to put a space before a question mark.)
You could call [Nous aussi] a topic, which a lot of linguists would do.
Notice that the verb agrees with 3rd person singular [on], not with [nous].
