Let’s turn Jeremy Corbyn’s words against austerity into action in Haringey!

TUSC candidates are trade unionists, anti-cuts campaigners and Socialist Party members.

Full statement

We support Jeremy Corbyn and his anti-austerity manifesto, and we will work alongside any Haringey Labour councillor who wants to put those ideas into practice in Haringey Town Hall.

There has been a change inside Haringey Labour Party. Now there is a chance to fight for a no-cuts council that ends the cuts and privatisation that has blighted Haringey for years. But Seven Sisters Labour candidates are right-wing, pro-austerity candidates who will carry on with Tory cuts and privatisation.

STOP THE HDV! STOP THE CUTS!

We will fight to:
Stop all cuts to council services and jobs
Reverse cuts to youth services & reopen youth centres
Refuse to increase council tax, rent or service charges to make up for government cuts
Stop privatisation & bring services back in-house
Save Osborne Grove, Haringey’s last remaining publicly-owned nursing home
Stop redevelopment of Wards Corner without social housing and safeguarding the ‘Latin American Corner’ local businesses
Stop the privatisation of Ermine Community Hub in Seven Sisters for adults with learning disabilities and autism
Build a mass campaign involving trade unions, anti-HDV and anti-austerity campaigns to claw back the £155m taken from Haringey by central government.

WE NEED SOCIALIST POLICIES FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL – NOT THE BILLIONAIRES!
