Conservative austerity has left a fifth of UK citizens in poverty, unable to afford even the most basic essentials.
Since 2015, the Tories have bungled the roll-out of Universal Credit, made brutal cuts to benefits and introduced their senseless two-child limit that is fuelling child poverty.
By fixing our broken welfare system, we can ensure that everyone has the same opportunities regardless of where they come from.
And the Liberal Democrats are announcing fantastic policies every single day.
In fact, we've announced so many brilliant ideas this week that it can be hard to keep up.
So we've rounded up everything we've announced this week right here:
Skills Wallets 💰
We will create "skills wallets" - a bold new initiative to give adults £10,000 to spend on education and training throughout their lives. They will help everybody to develop the skills needed to work in a 21st-century economy.
This week NHS England released statistics on the NHS's key performance measures - and they are abysmal.
Almost 1 in 5 patients attending A&E in England were not treated or admitted within four hours. This is the worst performance ever recorded since the target was introduced in 2004.
Meanwhile, just 76.9% of cancer patients are starting their treatment within target waiting times. And only 85% of patients referred for non-urgent treatment were seen within 18 weeks.
A Liberal Democrat government will plant 60 million trees every year, increasing UK forest cover by 1 million hectares by 2045.
The climate emergency is destroying our natural environment and threatening our children's futures. It's clear that the Conservative Party doesn't take climate change seriously.
It was a pleasure to be in Leeds today to give my keynote speech as Lib Dem Shadow Chancellor.
Things need to change. Too many people can't live a secure, happy and fulfilling life. And too many businesses face crippling uncertainty over their future.
The economic debate in this election has been between two fantasies. Between Conservative fantasies of the days of empire or Labour fantasies of failed '70s socialism. Both Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn will only take our country backwards.
The climate crisis is doing irreversible damage to our planet, and our country deserves a government that has a clear, ambitious plan to tackle the climate emergency. That's the Liberal Democrats.
We previously announced our bold green plan to build a brighter future, and today we go a step further as Ed Davey unveils the Liberal Democrats' latest economic pledge in taking urgent climate action.
We have always been fierce advocates for human rights. We believe in a Britain where nobody has to fear discrimination. A Liberal Democrat government will put equality at the heart of society and the workplace.
We've announced a huge raft of policies on rights and equalities. They are our blueprint for a government that respects the rights of the individual. This will be our foundation for a society where dignity, privacy and equality are valued.
No one should live in fear of harassment or physical violence.
Trans Awareness Week is a time dedicated to celebrating trans and gender non-conforming people.
It is also an important opportunity. We must bring attention to the continued injustices and inequalities faced by trans people today
The week will culminate in the Trans Day of Remembrance. This is a day to honour those who have either been killed or have taken their own lives as a result of transphobia. As we pause to we remember the lives lost, we are reminded that transphobia is never funny or trivial. It can be fatal.
