Welsh Party Leader, Kirsty Williams previews the Welsh Liberal Democrat Conference in this morning’s Western Mail with an interview that outlines her confidence in the party’s future:
She said the main message she would be sending out to campaigners in her keynote speech this afternoon was that “the stakes are high” in the run-up to the general election.
“There’s an opportunity, a gap, that is opening up,” she said.
“The Labour Party is obviously failing, support for the Labour Party is falling away, but the Tories haven’t sealed the deal with people.
“So that presents us with an opportunity to capitalise on that and to demonstrate to people there is a different way of casting their vote that can make a difference.
“We can’t let this opportunity pass us by and let people peel off and vote for the others that you see in opinion polls.
Kirsty promised that this weekend’s conference will start to put in place concrete policies for tackling the economic difficulties facing Wales and that when it comes to debating the Assembly’s budget the Welsh Liberal Democrats will present hard and fast suggestions as to how it might be improved.
