Gower Liberal Democrats boosted by conference
March 5, 2007 12:00 AM
Local Welsh Liberal Democrats have returned to Gower from the party's spring Federal conference in Harrogate boosted for the battles ahead.
Welsh Liberal Democrat Assembly candidate and Dunvant councillor Nick Tregoning who attended the Liberal Democrats' gathering on 2nd - 4th March said the conference was a great success with Party Leader Menzies Campbell leading from the front.
Members debated a number of issues but tackling crime was the most important matter discussed. Other debates included cutting pollution from homes, regenerating communities and the future of the nuclear deterrent.
"Harrogate was a successful conference for the Liberal Democrats," said Nick Tregoning. "In sharp contrast to both the Conservatives and Labour, who no longer allow their members to have real policy debates at their conferences, we are able to discuss policy, have informed debates and allow the members to decide policy.
"But it also demonstrated that Menzies Campbell leads from the front.
"The conference has been a great boost for the Liberal Democrats as we head towards the next challenge, the Welsh General Election in May. We are confident of a good result in that contest."
