Facebook’s new media chief is a risky choice that might pay off

Nick Clegg, former leader of the Liberal Democrats party, carries an umbrella to shelter from the rain as he arrives to deliver a speech on Brexit as part of the party's general-election campaign in London, U.K., on Tuesday, June 6, 2017.

Unfortunately for theÂ LiberalÂ Democrats, it is stuck in the polls around the 10 percent mark, little more than the 8 percent they won in the 2015 election.
