The future of the Liberal Democrats
The Liberal Democrats are holding their party conference in Bournemouth
As the only party committed to remaining in the European Union, the Liberal Democrats expected to collect the votes of Remain supporters. When the counting was done, the party had picked up only four seats and its national vote share fell by 0.5%.
Today's Justin Webb heads to Oxford to ask how the Lib Dems intend to build on their successes and increase their vote share.
Liberal Democrat leader Sir Vince Cable says that he will revive his party and explains why he thinks he could become prime minister.
Editor of Liberal Democrat political blog Voice Caron Lindsay and former special adviser to Nick Clegg and former director of policy and communications James Holt discuss whether the Lib Dems should go into the next election as the Remain party.
