Quiet Riot - LIBERAL DEMOCRATS SPECIAL with Layla Moran

Jul 19, 2024

Naomi chats to newly re-elected Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran on the campaign, the stunning success, and what do they mean for the party going forward.


Layla Moran on Ed Davey in a wetsuit: “You can’t do that unless you’re very comfortable in your skin. It’s quite exposing, politically and quite literally. He did take a risk, with bubbly Ed, but he pulled it off.”


On LDs being the third biggest party in Parliament again: “One thing I’ve noticed: all of us are worrying much more about our shoes, because we actually sit on the front bench.”


On being in opposition to Labour: “I have spent the last seven years in opposition, with all of those friends of mine, who are now ministers. I sidled up to a couple of them and said: 'so can we do this thing now?' or 'can we get this campaign over the line?'.”
