The morning’s Lib Dem photo opportunity was strangely old school
for a party which really discovered the potency of a stunt during the 2019
election.

Sir Ed Davey, now struggling with his voice having shouted “do
something you’ve never done, vote Lib Dem” while bungee jumping yesterday, has
more energetic “outward bound” activities planned later today.

But the Lib Dems believe the domino toppling is an apt image for
the way they believe the campaign is going.

We’re in the seat of Taunton and Wellington, another of those
constituencies created through boundary changes.

The Conservatives have a 10,000 “nominal” majority here but Lib Dems internal
data suggests they are “edging ahead”, according to a party aide.

As we’ve been reporting in the last 48 hours on the yellow bus,
the party is increasingly confident in a wider range of seats, places they
didn’t think would go Lib Dem at the start of the campaign.

Examples being St Ives, Cornwall North, Devon North, Devon South,
Torbay, Yeovil, Taunton and Wellington, Wells and Mendip Hills, Dorset West,
Dorset Mid and Poole North, Cotswolds South, Cotswolds North.

As ever, head to the constituency pages for details of candidates
in Taunton and Wellington and all of these seats.
