Wycombe Liberal Democrats

On may 6th, there will also be a by election in Totteridge. This has been caused by the resignation of Tory Joel Foley.

Wycombe Liberal Democrats are very proud to introduce our candidate, Jen Joseph. A resident of Totteridge, Jen works for BALPA (the British Airline Pilot’s Association) and has an outstanding track record of community activity.

We invited Jen to chat to Wendy Guy, so that you can learn a little more about her.

Jen feels very passionately about the closure of Holywell Mead Pool, and will be using her campaign to draw attention to this again in the light of the public consultation response announced just recently.

Your existing Lib Dem District Councillor for Totteridge, Cllr Steve Guy said:

I am delighted to welcome Jen Joseph as our candidate. Totteridge needs two hard working Councillors to fully meet the needs of residents. Jen is very community focussed, and has a wealth of experience. I know that she will be a great community champion if elected on May 6th

Responding to Alistair Darling’s Budget, Nick Clegg said:

“This Budget was a political dodge not an economic plan.

“Britain needed a Budget that gave us honesty in spending and fairness in tax, we have got neither.

“Labour is in denial, while the Conservatives are talking tough to cover up that they only offer more of the same.

“The Chancellor is incapable of coming clean about where spending cuts will have to fall.

“Rather than being honest with people about what the Government can and cannot afford, the Chancellor would rather let others indiscriminately shave departmental budgets.

“By confirming the freeze in personal allowances the Government has ensured everyone will see a real increase in their income tax bill – when what people on low and middle incomes desperately need is an income tax cut.

“Rather than forcing the nationalised banks to lend to good British businesses they have chosen to create a feeble quango to arbitrate between bullying banks and their small business clients.

“It says something when the most substantive announcement the Government can come up with is a tax agreement with Belize, however welcome that may be.”

Steve Guy has announced plans to consult fans of Wycombe Wanderers over proposed stadium move.

Steve Guy said “As I am no doubt you are aware Wycombe District Council has put aside half a million pounds of local taxpayers money to look into the feasibility of a new stadium for Wasps and Wycombe Wanderers to share in Booker.

As part of the Liberal Democrat opposition on the Council it is our duty to question, probe and examine the plans being made by the ruling Conservative group and the owners of the club.

This is a large expensive development that is being undertaken and it can only succeed if all stakeholders are fully behind the plans. The most important stakeholder, the supporters of Wycombe Wanderers F.C. have to be supportive of the plans.

So on Saturday 6th March at the home match against Carlisle I will be asking fans for their view. I will be conducting an opinion poll complete with ballot paper and ballot box.

I will give a summary of the results to the local press, club owners, Wycombe District Council and fan groups.”

Poll has closed!
