Lib Dem leader Ed Davey gets soaked on water obstacle course in latest daft election photo-op stunt By Matthew Cox Published: 07:03 EDT, 12 June 2024 | Updated: 12:40 EDT, 12 June 2024 e-mail 47 shares 283 View comments Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey got drenched falling off an aquatic obstacle course in his latest slapstick photo-op. Sir Ed attempted a floating assault course at Spot-On-Wake in Henley-in-Arden, Warwickshire, while on the General Election campaign trail this morning, as his party set their sites on gains in 'true blue' Tory seats. This is just the latest in a string of eye-catching stunts which the politician has used to gain traction for his campaign, which recently saw him visit Thorpe Park.
In footage, Sir Ed can be seen donning a wetsuit, life jacket and fluorescent hard hat as he helplessly falls from a tightrope into the chilly water beneath. Henley-in-Arden falls within the Stratford-on-Avon constituency, where former Tory Chancellor Nadim Zahawi currently has a majority of nearly 20,000.
