EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to the news that Michael Gove is standing down as an MP, Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesperson Sarah Olney MP said:

“Conservative politicians are fleeing the blue wall in their droves. Michael Gove is running scared of the Liberal Democrats.

“The drumbeat of Conservative MPs stepping down has been getting louder as the days go by - now it’s deafening. 

“Every Conservative MP that steps down in a blue wall battleground is a damning statement against Rishi Sunak and proof the LiberalDemocrats are on the up.”
