Last night, we held our Liberal Democrat manifesto launch event in Camden, North London, where Jo Swinson laid out our ambitious government plans for both people and the planet.

In her speech, Jo emphasised that the Liberal Democrats are the only party that can take votes away from the Conservatives, the only party that will stop Brexit and the only party that can build a brighter future for our country.

She also laid out the key points in our Plan for Britain’s Future:

1. Stop Brexit and invest the £50 billion Remain Bonus in public services and tackling inequality. 

2. Tackle the climate emergency by generating 80% of our electricity from renewables by 2030 and insulating all low-income homes by 2025.

3. Give every child the best start in life by recruiting 20,000 more teachers as part of an extra £10 billion a year for schools. 

4. Build a fairer economy by providing free childcare from 9 months and giving every adult £10,000 to spend on skills and training throughout their lives. 

5. Transform our mental health services by treating mental health with the same urgency as physical health. 

Watch Jo’s full speech above and learn more about our Plan for a Brighter Future here. 

Today, we can finally share our full Plan for the Future with you!

This manifesto is a bold plan to build a brighter future for our country.

That starts with stopping Brexit.

The Liberal Democrats will build a brighter future for people and our planet.

Labour and the Conservatives can’t offer the country a brighter future because they both want Brexit. We know that will be bad for our economy, bad for our NHS and bad for our environment.

Our politics has been dominated by the two, tired old parties for too long. This election provides an opportunity to change the future of our country.

The Liberal Democrats will build a brighter future for people and our planet.

Our ambitious plan includes:

• Stopping Brexit.
• Then, investing the £50 billion Remain Bonus in public services and tackling inequalities
• Tackling the climate emergency
• Building a fairer economy and transforming opportunities
• Giving every child the best start in life
• Transforming our mental health services
• Adopting a public health approach to serious violence
• Fixing the broken immigration system

Please help us spread our vision by sharing this manifesto far and wide.

Together, we can create a future for our country where every person, every community and our planet can thrive.

For too many people, things aren’t working as they should be. The Conservatives and Labour are stuck in the past, failing time and again to deliver a better future.

Brexit chaos has distracted from the real issues facing our country. While the Tories and Labour are squabbling over the latest Brexit deal, the country is in crisis.

The NHS can’t afford to help the huge numbers of people facing battles with their mental health. Noone’s taking the radical action needed to tackle climate change. Schools are so chronically underfunded that some can only open 4 days a week.

It doesn’t have to be like this.

20th November is Trans Day of Remembrance. Every year, we take a moment to remember those in the trans community who have been lost too soon. Too many are killed or are made to feel like they have no choice but to end their lives for simply being who they are.

We proudly champion the T, alongside the LGB, for a society where no-one is made to feel unsafe or worthless because of who they are or who they love.

We in the Liberal Democrats stand with our trans friends. We proudly champion the T, alongside the LGB, for a society where no-one is made to feel unsafe or worthless because of who they are or who they love.

Yeesh. It’s almost like she has experience with childish leaders lying to get their own way.
