May 2009
June 4th sees the County Council elections. The people of Cambridge face a clear choice. More of the same from the Two Story Tories and yet more Lib Dem Let Downs or change for Cambridgeshire. Please take the time to have a look around and read about the litany of failures in both City and County Councils recently, and about the positive changes a Labour vote would mean.
European Elections - June 4th 2009
May 2009
On the same day that you vote for your new County Council there are also elections to the European Parliament. Richard Howitt MEP, your Cambridge Labour MEP is seeking re-election, along with a full list of experienced Labour candidates. Given their way, the Tories would create a new faction in Europe of far-right parties, teaming up with extremists across Europe. The Lib Dems, praised for their left-wing economic policies at home, vote with a centre-right grouping in the parliament. UKIP MEPs are rarely out of the press, usually for dubious reasons, and there is a real chance the racist BNP could get elected.
Labour in Europe, as part of the socialist faction, have achieved real successes, including (to name just a few) ending the British opt-out to the Working Time Directive and the introduction of the Disability Discrimination Act. Read more on Richard Howitt's site.
