Sir Ed Davey’s party has ousted four Cabinet ministers and denied the Tories success in constituencies once held by former prime ministers Lord Cameron, Lady May and Boris Johnson.
With 641 results declared, the Lib Dems’ tally stood at 71, beating the party’s previous record of 62 under Charles Kennedy’s leadership in 2005.
It far exceeds the party’s result at the last general election in 2019, when it secured 11 seats.
