About Reigate Labour
Who are Reigate Constituency Labour Party?
We are an active, campaigning organization of people just like you from all walks of life, all ages and all backgrounds. We have a strong history of campaigning and working in the area, contesting all local and national elections, alongside scrutinising the council to make sure the interests of ordinary people are represented!
What do we believe?
Labour believes that by the strength of our common endeavour, we achieve more than we achieve alone. Through this philosophy we can create for each of us the means to realise our true potential and for all of us a community in which power, wealth and opportunity are in the hands of the many, not the few, so that we can empower society for the benefit of us all and live together, freely, in a spirit of solidarity, tolerance and respect.
It’s time to be part of change in 2024
Labour’s missions are built on fulfilling our first duty: to protect our country – through economic stability, secure borders and strong defence. Find out about Labour’s national policies at Let’s get Britain’s future back (labour.org.uk)
Labour has a long term plan to get Britain’s future back: five fully funded national missions.
- Deliver economic stability with tough spending rules, so we can grow our economy and keep taxes, inflation and mortgages as low as possible.
- Cut NHS waiting times with 40,000 more evening and weekend appointments each week, paid for by cracking down on tax avoidance and non-doms.
- Launch a new Border Security Command with hundreds of new specialist investigators and counter-terror powers to smash criminal gangs and strengthen our borders.
- Set up Great British Energy, a publicly-owned clean power company, to cut bills for good and boost energy security, paid for by a windfall tax on oil and gas giants.
- Crack down on antisocial behaviour, with more neighbourhood police paid for by ending wasteful contracts, tough new penalties for offenders, and a new network of youth hubs.
- Recruit 6,500 new teachers in key subjects to set children up for life, work and the future, paid for by ending tax breaks for private schools
