"If we are going to stop Reform, we are the party most capable of doing that, it is on a knife edge in some of these areas. People could vote Labour or Green and then we will get narrowly beaten by Reform and people will regret it for a long time."
"We are finding that when people realise the choice is us or Reform, lots of people who were even thinking of voting Conservative were coming to us, certainly Labour and Green are coming to us."
"Tactical voting will be key, Reform is working really hard, spending lots of their money, meaning results will be on a knife edge."
"I am determined we stop them now."
Ed Davey emphasized the importance of supporting the Liberal Democrats to avoid a Reform-led council in critical regions. He identified five councils where the Lib Dems could gain control and highlighted the potential for significant seat changes in the upcoming local elections. Projections suggest the Lib Dems could gain 500 seats while Labour may lose 1,800. Tactical voting is crucial, as the fractured voter base of Labour and Conservatives presents opportunities for the Lib Dems and Greens. Davey urged voters to recognize the stakes involved in their choices.
