Responding to Nigel Farage’s comment at a Brexit Party rally today that “I don’t want that Swinson girl anywhere near power, perfectly pleasant though she is”, Leader of the Liberal Democrats Jo Swinson said:
”Nigel Farage is going to discover that I am not always perfectly pleasant.
“Farage has stood for Parliament seven times and every single time, the voters have rejected his toxic brand of chauvinistic, far-right nationalism. He knows he is not going to get anywhere nearer to power this election and is so scared that he hasn’t even bothered standing. He is lashing out at the real threat to his Tory-Brexit Party electoral pact: the girly swot leading the UK’s strongest remain party.
“The Liberal Democrats want to stop Brexit and build a brighter future, where everybody’s rights are respected and society is fair and diverse.”
