What are Labour’s first steps for change?
Deliver economic stability with tough spending rules, so we can grow our economy and keep taxes, inflation and mortgages as low as possible.
Cut NHS waiting times with 40,000 more evening and weekend appointments each week, paid for by cracking down on tax avoidance and non-doms.
Launch a new Border Security Command with hundreds of new specialist investigators and counter-terror powers to smash criminal gangs and strengthen our borders.
Set up Great British Energy, a publicly-owned clean power company, to cut bills for good and boost energy security, paid for by a windfall tax on oil and gas giants.
Crack down on antisocial behaviour, with more neighbourhood police paid for by ending wasteful contracts, tough new penalties for offenders, and a new network of youth hubs.
Recruit 6,500 new teachers in key subjects to set children up for life, work and the future, paid for by ending tax breaks for private schools
What we are doing in our community
Putting residents first
Labour councillors champion local issues and make sure your views are really heard. We work with the police to stamp out antisocial behaviour in your area. We support local families, and are long time supporters of the Truth About Zane campaign.
Housing
With more than 3000 families on the housing waiting list, we need more affordable and social housing to help local families. This is a top priority for Labour councillors.
Safer local streets
Working with Surrey Police and the County Council, Labour councillors work to prevent crime, tackle violence against women and girls. We are also addressing the menace of fly-tipping and littering.
A greener Spelthorne
Labour is working with other parties to get to carbon neutral as soon as possible, boosting energy security for a greener, cleaner borough.
