I am livid.

It is unbelievable that the two Brexiteer leaders of the two old stale parties will be debating the politics of the past, meanwhile Jo Swinson the one leader who unequivocally represents remainers and wants to debate how we build a brighter future is left out of the conversation.

The leader of the strongest party of Remain demanding a People’s Vote deserves to be heard. You’ve already taken the first step towards making sure they #DebateHer.

Dear Dame Carolyn

I am extremely disappointed that ITV are planning to exclude the Liberal Democrats from your General Election debate on 19th November.

Corbyn and Johnson both are pursuing Brexit and represent the two tired establishment parties. A debate between just them offers no real alternative and stifles the conversation.

The voters of this country deserve to hear from a Remainer on the debate stage, not just from the two men who want to deliver Brexit

Brexit has fundamentally rewritten the structure and shape of our politics.

As the chief architect of Brexit, it has warped the values and principles of the Conservative Party most of all. It is therefore inevitable that politicians and the public take stock and look at the parties they support and assess whether they are fit for purpose.

I came into politics to fight for a one-nation, pragmatic and centrist Government.

When I was elected, I wanted to push for action to tackle climate change, protect our NHS and improve education.

This election is a once in a generation opportunity to reshape our politics, and give hope to the millions of people who want a fairer, brighter future.

That’s why, today, we have launched our campaign slogan: Stop Brexit. Build a brighter future.

The old two parties have failed Britain.
The Liberal Democrats will stop Brexit and build a brighter future.
Help us build a #BrighterFuture now ⬇️

This slogan reflects a positive forward-looking vision for the country, and to get the word out, a poster van with this message will be touring the constituencies of Boris Johnson (Uxbridge) and Jeremy Corbyn (Islington North) this morning.

Boris Johnson & Jeremy Corbyn are stuck in the past and the Liberal Democrats represent a brighter future.

Both the Conservatives and Labour are stuck in the past, failing time and again to build a better future. We have an ambitious plan for the future of our country, where every person, every community and our planet can thrive.

This General Election is about the direction of our country for the next generation.

The Liberal Democrats are the strongest party of Remain and we are ready to fight to stop Brexit and ensure that we can build a brighter future for our United Kingdom.

The Early Parliamentary Election Bill has just passed the Commons. It’s full steam ahead for an election on the 12th December.

It’s likely to be the most important General Election in our lifetimes. And the Liberal Democrats are going into it as the only party that will stop Brexit on day 1.

We’re ready for this. We have an ambitious plan for the future of our country, where every single person and community can thrive. But we need your help if we’re going to win – and here’s how you can make that happen.

1. Register to vote.

I’ll register to vote

We have an ambitious plan for the future of our country, where every single person and community can thrive.

The sooner the better – it only takes 10 minutes and all you need is your address and National Insurance number. If you’re not yet 18 but will be by the 12th December – you can still register!

2. Get a postal vote.

Having a postal vote means that if you’re likely to be busy or away on polling day you can still have your say in our country’s future. It’s really easy to get one – you’ll get the option to sign up for one when you register to vote, or you can get in touch with your council to request one.

3. Join us.

I’ll join the party

50,000 people have joined the Liberal Democrats since the start of the year. It’s a great way to show your support – and you’ll get one of our lovely new membership cards, too!

4. Volunteer.

I’ll volunteer

Boots on the ground win elections. We’ll be championing our message in hustings, in the media and online – but there’s no substitute for speaking directly to voters. Just a couple of hours a week could make a huge difference!

5. Join the Liberal Democrat Online Champions

I’ll sign up 

Social media will be a key battleground in this election and we need to get our message across on it. Help us do this by joining Online Champions.

6. Donate!

Unlike the Conservatives and Labour, we don’t get huge donations from big business or trade unions. We’re supported by the generosity of people just like you – and anything you can give will make a difference. Just £25 could help us reach 5000 voters on social media:
