Years of Tory cuts to policing means violent crime is up on our streets, but you can't have security on the cheap.
The Labour Party will:
✅Hire 10,000 extra officers
✅Support community policing
✅Give police the resources they need

We said we'd review the Tory Green Bin Tax so that's what we've done. The charge won't be renewed when current payment year ends on June 2nd and all garden waste will be collected free of charge from June 3rd this year. You said this was a key priority and we've listened to you.
Tonight Trafford Labour approved the Council’s Budget for 2019/20.
There will be no job losses, no service cuts and the Tories’ hated green bin tax will be scrapped.
Don’t lose your vote in May!

Our leisure centres are key for health and well-being but they need investment.
The brilliant upgrade of Urmston Leisure Centre is now complete, with funding agreed and plans moving forward for refurbishment and enhancement of Sale, Altrincham and Stretford Leisure Centres.
As an Administration we are really proud to be supporting the vaccine rollout, which in Trafford is proceeding at one of the fastest rates in the country! The first jab has now been offered to all in the first 4 JCVI cohorts.
Thanks to all involved 👏👏👏👍👍👍

The Conservatives think helping families in Trafford with the cost of living crisis is 'silly'.
Labour would cut VAT on energy bills and save families up to £600, paid for by a one-off windfall tax on oil and gas producers.

A regular claim is they wouldn’t build on the green belt. This is a lie: when they ran the Council they proposed thousands more units on the green belt, with Labour having almost halved the Tory number. They think residents can be taken for fools on this. They can’t.

It's a choice to cut social care leaving people without dignity, while funding tax giveaways to a few at the top.
Trafford Labour Group know that road repairs are a key priority for local residents.
In our budget for 2022/23 we’ve doubled planned highway spend to tackle potholes.
Sadly this wasn’t universally popular.

Last month Council Leader Andrew Western launched a Laptop for Learners appeal. Already the response from businesses has been fantastic, helping more than 300 children struggling with the digital divide to learn from home safely and effectively with their own quality equipment!
They say they’ll deliver new leisure centres. In fourteen years in control they delivered not one. We’ve scrapped their plans to close George Carnall and delivered the excellent Move Urmston site with other centres to be upgraded.
Another weekend packed with campaigning in Davyhulme West. Big groups out canvassing and leafleting. Brilliant stuff. Thanks to everyone who joined us this morning or who is out with us this afternoon.
So proud of the difference we are making on social housing in Trafford. Social units approved under the Tory Council/Tory Gov regime 2010/2018 (slight delivery lag on completions tbf):
14. Yes, 14.
Next year alone we’ll deliver 10 times that.
It’s always about priorities.
Trafford councillors campaigned to save ticket offices from the start and welcome the news plans to close them have finally been scrapped!
