2nd Labour Councillor Defects to Liberal Democrats

Written by Steve Guy on June 3, 2008 – 4:43 pm -

The last remaining Labour Councillor on Bucks County Council has today resigned from the Labour Party and joined the Liberal Democrats.

Councillor Chaudhary Ditta sits on both Buckinghamshire County Council and Wycombe District Council.

Wycombe Liberal Democrats Parliamentary Spokesman, Steve Guy said:

I am delighted to welcome Councillor Ditta to the Liberal Democrat team in Wycombe. He is a highly respected councillor and has considerable standing in the community. I know that we are all looking forward to working with him and gaining from his experience. The residents of Bowerdean, Micklefield and Totteridge will continue to be represented by a great team in Councillors Wassell and Ditta

Councillor Ditta said:

I have today joined Councillor Julia Wassell as member of the Liberal Democrat Group on
Bucks County Council and Wycombe District Council. This is a positive choice I have made in the interests of the community as I believe that Councillor Wassell and I have worked very well together for several years. We can achieve more for residents if we continue working together.
