Davey: Groundbreaking wins show people are sick to the back teeth of this Government

Commenting on early local elections results, Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey said:

“This is a groundbreaking night for the Liberal Democrats. We are exceeding all expectations. We have delivered a hammer blow to the Conservative Party in the Blue Wall ahead of next year's general election.

“We’re making progress all over the country - including in the heart of the Blue Wall, where we’re confident of taking control of the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. 

“From Bath to Brentwood, more and more communities are choosing Liberal Democrats to be their local champions. 

“The message from voters is clear: they are sick to the back teeth of Rishi Sunak and his out-of-touch Conservative Government. At this election, it is the Liberal Democrats who are defeating the Conservatives and delivering the fair deal people deserve.”
