Labour's Local Election Campaign 2012

These are tough times. Unemployment is going up and living standards are falling as families face a quiet crisis of rising living costs – with petrol prices, train fares and energy bills soaring. These elections are our chance to make a difference to that.

Labour is with you: on the side of working families. Labour councils and councillors will work hard to deliver fairness in tough times and protect families from the worst of the Tory-led Government’s cuts.

The Tories are out of touch: and making things harder not easier. A million young people are out of work and families are feeling the squeeze, but the Tories and their Liberal Democrat allies are hitting families and pensioners’ with new tax rises and tax credit cuts. They are cutting 16,000 police from the streets and laying off thousands of nurses in the NHS – while at the same time giving millionaires a tax cut.
