At the recent Council meeting Cllr Adrian England asked a question about the Hemel Hempstead Urgent Care Centre (UCC) night-time closure, which, far from being sorted in the new year, has in fact continued now for four months.
Sally Symington has been selected to stand as the Liberal Democrat candidate for the Hemel Hempstead constituency. When asked how she felt about the upcoming election Sally said "I feel inspired and energised by the flood of support that I have already received personally, and that the party has received nationally, in the last three days since the announcement of the snap election. This is a hugely pivotal time for us all and I am very honoured and proud to have the good fortune to be the Liberal Democrat candidate in this election and reveal the lies and distortions of the Hard (now renamed 'Clean') Brexit movement of which Mike Penning is a part. The people of Hemel Hempstead deserve better - they deserve an open and honest debate about the choices we face both locally and as a nation and the consequences of those decisions as they affect us all."
Liberal Democrat Cllr Adrian England says: "Local people have been left in the dark on the night time closure of the Urgent Care Centre (UCC) finding it closed at night."
