Welcome to Welwyn Hatfield Liberal Democrats
Hi, I'm Paul Zukowskyj, and I am the Liberal Democrat Prospective MP for Welwyn Hatfield.
Through this site you can see what we are doing in your area and you can also let us know what you think. Follow links on the left for information about our councillors and our area.
Welwyn Hatfield Liberal Democrats have made steady progress in recent years and are set to become the official opposition this year. We came second in Hertfordshire in the 2009 County Council elections and Labour, who are a spent force, no longer have any local representation on the county council. We're campaigning hard in the area and our news items below will be regularly updated on local issues as they develop.

Hatfield may be getting a new town centre after all. The development consortium will be lodging a planning application in the next few days for a revised redevelopment.

Yet another kick in the teeth for our area. Yesterday, Peter Mandelson cut the budget for Universities by £500m. The University of Hertfordshire is a major local employer. This year they have already had to cut jobs through a voluntary redundancy scheme. The University may now be put in the position of having no alternative to a significant compulsory redundancy programme.

"I hate to say it, but only one party leader seems to have grasped that, if you construct a system where unskilled people are worse off by taking a job than by staying on welfare, they remain trapped in poverty - and that is Nick Clegg. "
Lord Norman Tebbit
Daily Telegraph online - 13 Jan
"It's unbelievable that the Tories are still planning to cut taxes for a handful of millionaires when the majority of people across the country are feeling the squeeze. We need fair tax cuts that put money back in the pockets of ordinary people. The Tory sums simply do not stack up. It is irresponsible and highly misleading for George Osborne to continue to pretend that they do. "
