Today is the day to stop Boris Johnson and stop Brexit

Liberal Democrat Leader Jo Swinson delivered her final speech of the election campaign in Esher and Walton, urging voters to back the Liberal Democrats to stop Boris Johnson getting a majority and stop Brexit.

Jo Swinson said:

"My message today is clear. To stop Brexit, we must stop Boris Johnson. We have one more day left to do it.

"To all my fellow Lib Dem activists up and down the country - I say this: keep going. Keep fighting for every vote.

"And to everyone out there who has a growing pile of Lib Dem leaflets on their kitchen table: we can win where you live.

"You can stop another Conservative MP being elected. You can stop Boris Johnson from getting a majority he doesn't deserve. You can help us stop Brexit.

"On Monday, Boris Johnson once again showed us the kind of leader he is going to be.

"Faced with that heart-breaking image of Jack, he refused to look at it, to acknowledge it, even taking the phone out of the journalist's hand and putting it in his pocket. As though that would somehow make it all go away. What a coward.

"He doesn't care about Jack, and if he wins a majority, he'll spend the next five years not caring about you or your family either. He'll spend five years running away from scrutiny. Avoiding inconvenient truths. Hoping that his power and privilege alone will keep him in Number 10."
