The Tories continue to let young people down. £2bn in apprenticeship funding unspent. Youth mobility with Europe ended. Now they want to cut support for young jobseekers and take away 100,000 university places. Lib Dems have a plan to give young people opportunities they deserve.

We need real action from the Prime Minister on Europe, not more hesitation. The Liberal Democrats have a plan to strengthen our economy, cut living costs, and boost defence by rejoining the Single Market, Customs Union, and working with European partners on security. These issues cannot wait.
