Mr Davey said the Liberal Democrats are "on the march, with no ceiling on our ambitions." He referred to them as the "real party of change" and the only party standing up for British values. The conference comes after a record-breaking year for the party, which saw them elect 72 MPs and overtake the Conservative Party to run more councils. The Liberal Democrats' community politics is the best antidote to Reform, as shown by their success at May’s local elections. The Liberal Democrats hope to continue building on their recent successes.
