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.

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.

"Anyone who wants to pass laws in this country should pay this country's full taxes and not hide behind the special offshore status of non-doms. Non-doms have to tell the taxman that their first allegiance is to another country. No-one should be a British lawmaker whose first allegiance is not to Britain. "
Chris Huhne, Liberal Democrat Shadow Home Secretary

"I think people are entitled to expect a sensible, stable government at a time when the country is facing very, very acute choices. We take what the markets are worrying about immensely seriously. We will not take any risk with the creditworthiness of the economy. "
Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats
Financial Times - 3 March
