Unlikely.

They have seen a huge decline.
In 2005 the LibDems had 62 MPs.
Today they have 12.

The same way they did in Chesham & Amersham where they overturned a 16,000 Tory majority.

I am sure ‘levelling up’ money is being diverted yo blue wall seats as we speak.

Chesham was not typical. HS2 was a major issue there which helped the LDs.

The most important part of that affiche is the bit about Jeremy Corbyn.
Everyone knows the Lib Dems cannot win an election so people will vote for them knowing that it’s effectively voting for Labour.
But if enough people in the so-called Tory heartlands really do loathe or come to loathe Johnsonian Toryism more than Starmer then that might not matter

We've just had (19/8) an election for a local councillor (Tory heartland).
Results just in today are:-
Con. 1,190
Lab. 447
Yorkshire Party 347 (we voted for them)
Greens 142
Lib. Dems. 79

On that basis - they've got a bit of work to do and the Greens are being very successful in disguising the probable results of their policies.
