Manchester Labour Manifesto 2026 - Flipbook - Page 3
Manchester Labour’s 2026 Local Election Manifesto
A campaigning council that is well-run
council that spends your money carefully
and delivers for you. Our children’s
services became the 昀椀rst council in the
North West to ever be rated outstanding,
our housing services ranked good,
nationally recognised as giving out one
of the highest number 昀椀nes for 昀氀y-tipping
and our highways are rated one of the
best performing in the country. We want
our services to be even better and with
more money from the Government, we
are making sure it gets directed into front
line services, giving tax payers value for
money and delivering a better city.
This Manifesto sets out what we’ve
already delivered but crucially what we
can do with your backing in the 12 months
ahead- we show you at least 100 things
we will do.
We will build a successful and more equal
city, where everyone bene昀椀ts from our
success, a city that is the best place in the
country to grow up, get on and grow old,
and a place where everyone feels proud
to call home.
My promise to you, is that Manchester
Labour will always be by your side and
will always put our city 昀椀rst.
This year we are setting out the change
for the year ahead, a year when we are
starting to see things change. We’ve
demanded more from the Government
and are starting to repair the 15 years
of damage to our public services and
communities.
Cllr Bev Craig
Leader of Manchester Labour
& Manchester City Council
More police on our streets, more
teachers, more GP appointments
and shorter NHS waiting times, more
money for social housing, a new
hospital for North Manchester, new
tram stops, better childcare and
breakfast clubs, and more money for
our council services. A new fund that
will see £100 Million go to some of our
most disadvantaged communities,
money that the community can spend
themselves – putting the power in
your hands.
