Ed Davey replies robustly to a Tory MP’s enquiry about our selection procedures

By Paul Walter | Tue 26th October 2021 - 11:10 am

Philip Davies MP recently wrote to Ed Davey enquiring about the Liberal Democrats’ internal selection procedures.

Ed’s reply is a joy to behold! It is worth reading the correspondence in full.

Surprised that @philipdaviesuk is taking such an interest in the @LibDems' commitment to an equal parliament.

Perhaps he has decided to turn his back on his sexist views, or perhaps he has a different motive. pic.twitter.com/bBf11NteV2
