A Britain with a future that feels hopeful: more than points on a chart, but people in your community thriving together again.
That’s what we all deserve, and that’s what an economy powered by inclusive growth can deliver. 📈

This result must mark a shift toward a broader, bolder politics within Labour - so that we can build a democratic socialist programme to inspire the country.

There’s something special - a je ne sais quoi - about co-operatives.
We saw it at L’Onde de Coop 2025 in Paris this week, where co-ops from across Europe gathered, inspired by our world-leading ambition to double the size of the UK co-operative sector. 🇫🇷

We recognise that true national renewal must begin in our communities.
We know that politics and decision-making should be driven by communities themselves, shaped from the ground up.
This new era of community empowerment is essential to building a more Community Britain.
