Leader's Speech to Autumn Conference 2025
Liberal Democrats have passed bold new policy to put public health at the heart of gambling regulation. These reforms would save lives, raise hundreds of millions for NHS treatment, and finally hold the industry to account.
Our NHS emergency services are in crisis – with patients dying in A&E waiting rooms, hours-long ambulance delays, and unsafe ‘corridor care’ becoming routine. Our new policy will restore dignity for patients, protect NHS staff, and save lives.
Years of Conservative neglect left our policing system in crisis - our bold new policy will make policing fit for the future, putting public safety first, ensuring everyone can feel safe in their home and on their street.
Youth work changes lives by providing safe spaces, building skills, and improving life chances for young people. Our members passed a new policy to back youth work, calling on the Government to prioritise it in their upcoming National Youth Strategy.
Until the Government treats this crisis with the urgency and seriousness it demands, nothing will change and the vulnerable people caught in the system will continue to suffer.
