John, the Government now has no majority.

Jane Dodds - our fantastic new MP for Brecon & Radnorshire was sworn in this afternoon.

And moments later, Dr Phillip Lee crossed the floor in the House of Commons to become the 15th Liberal Democrat MP.

Philip brings almost 10 years of Parliamentary experience and decades of professional expertise. He shares our commitment to prevent a disastrous No Deal Brexit, and to stop Brexit altogether.

The Liberal Democrats are growing. Phillip follows both Chuka Umunna MP and Sarah Wollaston MP in bravely crossing the floor to join us.

We are winning support from all quarters - and it could not come at a more crucial time.

Boris Johnson has shown he's willing to try anything to force his plans through Parliament. But we - and a coalition of MPs from all parties and none - are going to stop him.

This government knows what a no-deal Brexit means.

It means food and medicine shortages. It means our economy crashing. It means bringing small businesses to their knees.

MPs do not want to crash out of the EU without a deal.

The British public does not want to crash out of the EU without a deal.

And the Liberal Democrats will not let it happen.

Our parliamentary party is growing so quickly, with four new MPs in as many months. Phillip Lee was the first Conservative minister to quit the cabinet over Brexit and back a second referendum. He was the chair for Conservatives for a People’s Vote.

He is a committed Remainer, and I am so grateful to have him on our team.



Will you follow in the footsteps of Phillip, Sarah and Chuka, and join our fight to stop Brexit?
