EMBARGO: Immediate Release
Responding to Mark Harper's claims that the plan is still working, Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper MP said:
“It is clear the Conservative Party are in complete denial after their disastrous set of local election results.
“Mark Harper’s claim that their “plan” is working shows the Conservatives are living in cloud cuckoo land.
“Voters across the country turned to the Liberal Democrats in these local elections as we beat the Conservatives and pushed them into third place.
“Rishi Sunak needs to stop running scared of the British people and call a general election. Every day he clings on to power just does more damage to the NHS and people's living standards.”
