LIB DEM CANDIDATE VOWS TO BE A VOCAL CHAMPION FOR WELWYN HATFIELD

Welwyn Hatfield Liberal Democrats have today announced their candidate for
the next General Election.

Speaking today (25/05/2024), Chair of the Welwyn Hatfield Liberal Democrats,
Cllr Russ Platt (LD, Peartree) said: "I'm delighted to confirm that the Lib Dem General Election Candidate for Welwyn Hatfield will be local Hertfordshire resident, John Munro. John is a life long Liberal Democrat campaigner and will be an outstanding champion for Welwyn Hatfield and its residents. I'm so pleased to have him on board and I know he's looking forward to taking the fight to both the Conservatives and Labour over the next six weeks"

John added "I'm grateful to the Welwyn Hatfield Liberal Democrats for putting their trust in me to fight this important General Election. We need to call time on this failed Conservative government - and on Welwyn Hatfield's Tory MP too. He has served as a minister under all but one of the last five Conservative Prime Ministers - he is as responsible as anyone else for the state our country finds itself in.

"And Welwyn Hatfield deserves more than just another Government yes man.
Labour is on course to form the next government. Welwyn Hatfield deserves an
outspoken, vocal, independent champion who isn't under the thumb of Government Whips. That's why I'm asking residents to vote for me, so that I can be their voice, campaigning them on issues that matter to them in Westminster".

John has previously stood for the Liberal Democrats, in 2015, in his then
hometown of Weston-super-Mare. He works in the General Counsel's department
at the Co-op, having previously been a Funeral Director with Co-op
Funeralcare. He has lived with his partner in Hertfordshire for the last
four years.
