DON’T LET GO – THOMAS COVE

Kier on a door lying down, Ed Davey

Kier
I love you, Ed

ED DAVEY
No...don’t say your goodbyes, Kier. Don’t you give up. You
can do it, you can make gains in the elections

KIER
I’m so politically vulnerable

ED DAVEY
You’re going to get out of this...you’re going to go on and
you’re going to take advantage of the Lib Dems not putting
forward candidates in all your areas. You’re going to make
marginal but ultimately unimportant and largely symbolic
gains. Do you understand me?

KIER
I can’t compete with the Daily Mail

ED DAVEY
Kier, listen to me. Winning that leadership was the best
thing that ever happened to me. It brought me to you. And
I’m thankful, even if nobody knows who the fuck I am. I’m
thankful. You must do me this one favour, tell everyone who
I am. Tell them I’ve been leader for two years

KIER
Um… ok

ED DAVEY
Let them know

KIER
I promise. I will let them know, N… N… Nick Clegg.

ED DAVEY
Ed Daveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!
