In his speech to Conference this week, Ed Davey laid out what this would mean and why we must stop it.
A Britain without the NHS. A government trampling over our basic rights and freedoms. Racism and misogyny getting tacit support from people in power. Ukraine abandoned, and our vital relations with Europe battered.
We’ve seen it in Trump’s America. We cannot let it become Farage’s Britain.
And it’s clear - we are the only party who can stop it. Labour’s support is collapsing and the Conservatives are fading into irrelevance.
But, John, the Liberal Democrats are on the up.
YouGov’s poll gives us an increased number of seats. We had our best ever general election result last year, and this May we beat both Labour and the Conservatives at the same local elections for the first time in history.
And crucially, we’re the only party beating Reform in council by-elections across the country right now.
This summer, we beat Reform in Luton and Devon, and gained a seat from them in Durham in one of the first council by-elections they fought.
And we’re beating Labour and the Conservatives too, taking a seat in Keir Starmer’s backyard in Camden last month, and winning against the Conservatives in Surrey to remove their majority on the county council.
So, John, it comes down to us. While Labour steal Reform’s rhetoric and the Conservatives steal their policies, we are the antidote:
Reform’s empty, divisive words or our positive, practical solutions.
Their denigration of the other or our respect and empowerment.
Their withdrawal from international law and obligations or the embrace of our internationalist beliefs.
That’s the choice we all face. So will you help us stop Nigel Farage getting the keys to Number 10?
