RESPECT likely to win around 100 council seats in Local Elections and send shock wave around the country!
Respect Press Statement:
'May the 4th' be with you …. Respect in the 2006 local elections.
Over one hundred and fifty Respect candidates will be challenging New Labour at the polls on May 4th 2006. They are standing for peace, justice and equality and have fought for these principles across the board at local, national and international levels.
New Labour's vote is in meltdown as the parties of privatisation and war blend more and more into the centre ground each day. Allegations of cash for peerages and ministers who are so rich they don't know whether they have paid off £350,000 mortgages show that New Labour are out of touch with voters. May the 4th will be a referendum on Tony Bliar, a chance to hurry him from office.
In Tower Hamlets over 20,000 people are on the housing waiting list and thousands of people live in appalling, overcrowded conditions. Since Thatcher's sell off of council houses, successive governments have failed to invest in new or decent council housing. Tower Hamlets Council's method of housing people is ineffective and based on a crude grading system. Respect intends to take control of Tower Hamlets Council and put an end to the housing crisis in London's poorest borough.
A vote for Respect will be a vote for decent affordable housing and an end to the privatisation of council housing
A vote for Respect will be a vote for peace, an end to the occupation of Iraq and no invasion of Iran
A vote for Respect will be a vote for the defence of pensions and the restoration of the link between pensions and earnings
A vote for Respect will be a vote for quality education not dependent on people's ability to pay
A vote for Respect will be a vote against racism and Islamophobia
A vote for Respect will be a vote against cut backs and privatisation in the NHS
