Nick Clegg elected as new Lib-Dem leader

Former Broxtowe Lib-Dem member Nick Clegg has been elected as the new leader of the Liberal Democrats, and we would like to offer him our warmest congratulations. Nick was a member of the Broxtowe local party when he served as MEP for the East Midlands from 1999 to 2003, and was a superb leader of the Lib-Dems across the region. We are delighted that he will now be able to use his skills for the benefit of the party as a whole, and we are sure that with Nick in charge the party will go from strength to strength.
