Former Liberal Democrats leader Tim Farron was booed by members at the Lib Dem party conference.
He was booed by audience members at the Lib Dem conference on Monday, 25 September as tensions erupted during a debate over housing.
"Thatcher had them, Blair had them, Cameron had them. They achieve naff all, they do not work. Sorry.
"They do work if you're a property investor, they do work if you're a second home owner, they do work if you're comfortable already and on the housing ladder.
"Vague targets let and empower developers to build the houses that they want but never ever the homes that we desperately need, especially that young people actually need.
"The authors of amendment one do not mean it, but it is pure Thatcherism."
After this comment Mr Farron received a shower of boos from the crowd following his remarks.
