We welcome moves to empower local leaders around the UK. This legislation will help to shape services in line with local communities' needs! The benefits of devolution can already be seen for rail services in cities like London and Liverpool 🚃🚉

The only long-term solution to the crisis of privatisation: Public ownership of our water system — so billions are invested into making our water clean and safe, not lining the pockets of investors.

Good to see some important developments in the new Renters' Rights Bill - although it should go further to prevent backdoor no-fault evictions via rent hikes. Rent controls are needed to increase security for renters and truly overcome the housing crisis 🏘️

A thriving economy and society are based on well funded schools, health services, infrastructure and emergency services. The government must find ways to fund these things, rather than looking to cut their funding. taxjustice.uk/blog/heres-how…

New analysis: If four UK airport expansions including Heathrow are allowed to go ahead, they will cancel out the carbon savings of this government’s clean power plan IN JUST FIVE YEARS. This government must cancel these planned expansions.

Getting from A to B should be easy and affordable for everyone. Instead, our transport system drives poverty and isolation. Have a read of our paper with NEF to explore how things could be different! neweconomics.org/2024/12/moving…

We will never have a strong economy unless we invest seriously in our public services. When we are in unwell, poorly educated, or living in precarious, poor-quality housing, our lives suffer, our communities suffer - and we are less productive.
