Liberal Democrats have a proud tradition of serving the people we represent in Stevenage. We believe in grassroots politics, and we are committed to devolving power to local people. We work with our communities all year round to improve life for everyone (no matter how they vote).
Liberal Democrats are now the biggest political force in Hertfordshire with more local councillors than any other party.

Liberal Democrats believe nobody should be able to use vast sums of money to silence legitimate public scrutiny. Our new policy calls for comprehensive, universal anti-SLAPP legislation to uphold media freedom and defend equal access to justice.
For too many entry-level jobseekers, applying for a job has increasingly turned into a robotic, dehumanising hurdle. Liberal Democrats believe that fair hiring practices are essential for equal opportunity.
The Liberal Democrats have always believed that power belongs to the people, not foreign states, tech algorithms, or wealthy elites. Our new policy will defend British democracy, root out dark money, and rebuild public trust from the ground up.
