Jo Swinson asked people to write headlines for her boxing photo-op – 7 knockout uppercuts
We have no idea why the boxing ring is the place to be seen by campaigning politicians this time around, but after Nigel farage and Richard Tice took the Brexit Party into the fray, we now have Jo Swinson posing in Lib-Dem yellow gloves and putting out a challenge.

Let’s face it, even without her request, people would have been writing their own headlines, but we particularly enjoyed these.

There was also a bit of boxing advice for her.

She should be safe. Liberal Democrats aren’t known for doing anything horrendously self-damaging.
