Sunak has ‘given up’, says Davey as he urges Lib Dems to ‘smash blue wall’
Sir Ed Davey has told the Liberal Democrats spring conference that the Prime Minister “sounds like he’s already given up” and that setting the general election date is “pretty much the only thing left that Rishi Sunak controls any more”.
The Lib Dem leader said the Tories “no longer represent British values of decency, tolerance and the rule of law”, as he challenged members to “smash the blue wall” at the national vote.
The Lib Dems are using the gathering in York to prepare for a further push into traditional strongholds, particularly seeking to win over voters in the south and south-west of England.
