And still seen as irrelevant because lib dem MPs are mostly southern nimbys who have been basically interchangeable with conservatives for years. Lib dems have a lot of safe seats, but basically zero appeal outside of them, because labour have historically been the tactical vote everywhere else.

Voting record and number of MPs says you're wrong, 72 mps isn'tlib dem safe seats, many were conservative rejection where people don't want to vote Reform. Eighteen times more MPs than reform, and you say they have 'zero appeal'. Get off Facebook.

You're literally commenting in the thread about a news article that proves that nobody gives a shit about the lib dems. I'd vote lib dem over reform, but it wouldn't be because I liked the lib dems, it's because a hung parliament is the best possible outcome right now.
