Sir Ed Davey says the UK's political system is 'broken' at Lib Dems Spring Conference
Press Releases



Sir Ed Davey has claimed the UK has a ‘broken political system’ during his keynote speech at the Liberal Democrats Spring Conference.

Speaking to party members in York, Davey said: “The truth is, this Prime Minister is now so weak he will say anything to stop his own right wing MPs from kicking him out before the British people get the chance. He’s outrageously running down the clock, enjoying the trappings of office for a few months more, while the crisis facing our country just get worse and worse and worse.

“That shouldn’t even be an option for a Prime Minister. And really, it’s a small but telling example of what is wrong with our broken political system and the two big parties who prop it up.

“The only reason Rishi Sunak gets to pick a date of his choosing is because two years ago, the conservatives passed a law taking that power away from parliament and handing it solely to the Prime Minister, while Liberal Democrat MPs stood firm and voted no, Labour stood back and let it pass.”
