The Green Party's 2017 Parliamentary candidate for Watford has joined the Liberal Democrats.

Lord Kerr, who played a central role in writing Article 50, has reiterated his view that Article 50 coud legally be withdrawn and that the people of the UK have the right to change their minds on Brexit. He was speaking at an event organised by St Albans for Europe, attended by Daisy Cooper St Albans Lib Dems Parliamentary spokesperson and a number of St Albans Lib Dems Councillors and members.

In spite of a last-minute bid by the Liberal Democrat opposition on Hertfordshire County Council to save Cuffley Camp, the fate of the outdoor centre looks to have been sealed after Conservative councillors refuse to reconsider their decision to close it.

MPs are seemingly getting more of a say on Brexit than local councillors on highways matters, say Hertfordshire Lib Dems, after their motion to allow for councillor-led scrutiny of the highways contract was quashed by the Conservatives at full council earlier this week.

Yesterday the Herts Valleys CCG made the appalling announcement that they had confirmed their previous decision to withdraw their £600,000 annual support for Nascot Lawn children’s respite care home.

Liberal Democrat County Councillors are seeking to overturn a decision by the Conservative County Council to close the Cuffley Camp Outdoor Centre, securing a review of the decision by the Council’s Overview and Scrutiny Committee in the next two weeks.

Liberal Democrat County Councillors were astounded when they were told today (8th November) that the Police and Crime Commissioner for Hertfordshire, David Lloyd, intends to employ an additional 10 administrative staff instead of funding more police posts.

The St Albans Liberal Democrats have slammed the lack of local consultation over a Hertsmere Borough Council proposal to build a potential 4000-8000 extra homes on the edge of London Colney village. Conservative run Hertsmere Borough Council had carried out a consultation last week with Shenley residents, but failed to inform either St Albans District Council or residents in London Colney of the plans.

St Albans Liberal Democrats Parliamentary Candidate Daisy Cooper has won the support of her party to adopt a "pubs cap" to limit the increase of business rates rises on pubs, restaurants and cafes to a maximum of 12.5%.
