Smithdown Labour

Leave Liverpool Tidy ♻️ As we get towards the time of year where students leave the area, a quick reminder of the options available to donate unwanted goods, so we send less waste to landfill. Skip dates and dumping enforcement to follow.

Smithdown Road is currently closed due to the fire between Barrington and Claremont Roads.

Today, 500 more free breakfast clubs are opening for 140,000 primary school children across the country. We're determined to bear down on the cost of living. This support alone will save parents up to £450 while giving them more time to get to work. Labour is on your side.

From 6th April, various new rules come into effect, improving people's lives immediately. And from 1st May, the Renters' Rights Act gives tenants new protections. Minimum wage rising 📈 State pension increasing 💷 Two child limit abolished 🏡 Child poverty falling 👶

Councillors Roberts and Morris pleased to be here at full council in the Town Hall where discussion of improving housing standards and tenants' rights, driving up public health and much more is on the agenda.

Labour changed Britain for women: delivering the Equal Pay Act, Sex Discrimination Act, maternity rights and flexible working. This International Women’s Day, we’re continuing that work, to build a more equal future and to empower women in every corner of the country.
