“With a Conservative Party in Government acting like it’s the 1980s, the last thing Labour should be doing is acting like it’s the 1970s.

“Corbyn’s style of politics may generate a lot of noise, but it’s only one thing that keeps a government in check: credible opposition.

“The reality is that Labour under Corbyn will become exactly the opposite of what this country needs right now: anti-Europe, anti-business and economically illiterate.

“Only the Liberal Democrats can offer the serious, responsible alternative that millions of people are crying out for.”
