Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey said the party had supplanted the Conservatives as the "party of Middle England".

Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey claimed "people are putting their trust in us, they know we deliver for local people and their communities".

He also says the debate has become "more polarised between left and right" with Labour and Lib Dem voters seeing it as a "top three" issue, while Reform voters are more opposed to net zero but less motivated by it: only one in 10 people vote Nigel Farage's party because of net zero, Tryl's research suggests.

Green Party co-leader Carla Denyer told the BBC the guidance puts trans people at risk of discrimination, while Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey said there were questions over enforcement.

The Lib Dem leader said his party accepted the Supreme Court ruling but there needed to be more debate in Parliament to reach a clear solution that "respects people's rights".
