In his speech launching Labour's local election campaign, Keir Starmer urged voters to seek community change as the party faces challenges in polls. He highlighted the importance of Labour councils working alongside the government to address local issues like community policing and public services. With elections upcoming for 23 councils and various mayoral positions, Starmer called the local elections an opportunity for residents to impact their communities. Despite pressures from Tory councils, he expressed optimism about the government's initiatives to improve living standards, while Angela Rayner stressed the need for effective Labour representation at local levels.
Sir Keir Starmer emphasized the importance of community engagement, stating, "This year, the local elections are the chance to vote for change in your community."
Deputy Leader Angela Rayner criticized Conservative councils, saying, "Conservative councils have let public services crumble, which is why we need great Labour mayors and leaders to deliver change."
