Brexit: Second vote pledge 'is not electoral suicide'

The Liberal Democrats have released their general election manifesto, which makes a second vote on Brexit central to their plans. The party is also offering more spending on education and health.

Offering a second vote on Brexit, is not "electoral suicide" says Lord Newby, the Liberal Democrat Leader in the House of Lords.

He was answering a question from Marthy Kearney on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4's World at One who suggested that by offering a second referendum on the Brexit deal to areas of the country where voters opted for Leave, was not a good move for the party.
