Shadow Environment Secretary promotes Labour’s manifesto for change

Shadow Environment Secretary, Steve Reed MP, joined David Taylor on the campaign trail on Thursday 13th June following the launch of Labour’s 2024 manifesto.

Steve set out Labour’s plans to turbo-charge the local economy by giving people decision-making powers over critical issues like transport, skills, housing and planning.

Steve Reed, Labour’s Shadow Environment Secretary of State, said:

 “Our plans for wealth creation mean delivering growth in every corner of the country. That can only be achieved by putting power back into the hands of working people. The people of Hemel Hempstead deserve change, and they should have control over what matters to them most.”

Labour’s candidate for Hemel Hempstead, David Taylor, said:  

“It’s great to have a member of Labour’s Shadow Cabinet in Hemel on the day we launched our manifesto. For too long, decisions have been taken by Westminster without the voices of local people being heard.

“By bringing decision making about transport, planning, housing and others closer to communities, Labour will help Britain unleash growth and turn the page after fourteen disastrous years with the Tories who have nothing to offer the people of Hemel Hempstead.”
