Welcome!

Just a few months ago we’ve heard lots of support for Labour’s manifesto for change on the doorsteps and during the campaign hustings around the constituency. This manifesto is the basis for our election ready status in local and National elections as they arise.

Please use your vote to bring fresh thinking and kinder policies for the many – together we can make a real change for the better!
