For 14 years, the Tories have failed our economy and left working people worse off. Taxes rising, prices going up, and now Britain hit by recession.
It’s time for change. In government, these two will work together night and day to get Portsmouth’s future back.

FACTS: Penny and the Tories have:
❌ Cut the Army to its smallest size since Napoleon
❌ Removed one in five ships from the Royal Navy
❌ Taken more than 200 aircraft out of service in the last five years alone
❌ Plunged satisfaction with service life to new lows
They can’t be
Keir Starmer cannot be trusted with our nation’s defence. To stop him, we Conservatives must demonstrate we can be.

Lib Dem cllrs backed up by the Tories just amended the Labour motion on private rented sector to remove commitment to mandatorily license all landlords. They've let down tenants and the communities in which they live and represent and let rogue landlords off the hook.

Fantastic evening on the doorstep in Portsmouth North! If the Tories get 5 more years, nothing will change.
There’s a clear choice at this election: More chaos with the Tories, or stability with Labour.
More decline and division. Or hope and unity with a changed Labour Party.
