Ed Davey loves clowning around, but is it time the Lib Dems get serious?

Lib Dem leader Ed Davey's mix of antics and campaigning poses a question: Is it time for the party to get serious? Despite recent successes, including gaining MPs and council seats, polling suggests voters are tiring of stunts. As the party strategizes its future direction to target Tory-held areas, they grapple with how to balance attention-grabbing tactics with substantive policy proposals. The Lib Dems aim to reclaim space in politics by promoting moderate ideas while critiquing the extremes, signaling a shift toward promoting British values and patriotism.
