The Conservative Government stood by and did nothing about sewage in our waterways. This Labour Governemnt will get Britain’s waterways cleaned up and if the water bosses don't play ball, they’ll end up in the dock. itv.com/news/meridian/2024-0…

Shoplifting & street crime are soaring yet there are far fewer neighbourhood police on streets - legacy of 14 Tory years. Labour will rebuild neighbourhood policing with new powers to crackdown on antisocial behaviour in our town centres & communities. express.co.uk/comment/expres…

On Friday July the 27th we had a full council meeting at Gedling Borough Council. The Tory group failed to attend the meeting, which made the Lib Dem group the main Opposition. Where were the Tories ?

If the Tories win another five years, nothing will change. Change will only happen if you vote Labour this Thursday.

If you want change, you have to vote for it. If you want to save our NHS, you have to vote for it. If you want more teachers and more police on our streets, and more opportunity for our young people, you have to vote for it. That’s the change Labour offers on Thursday 4 July.

A vote for Labour on Thursday 4 July is a vote to clean up our waters and our politics.  Change will only come if you vote for it.

This is brilliant news! 🚆 The future of Alstom in Derby is secure after brilliant campaigning from Labour regionally and nationally. The government could have made this happen months ago but did nothing.
