2 elections – local tomorrow and Euro on 23 May
The local election of councillors to Manchester City Council takes place tomorrow, on Thursday 2 May. Our Labour and Co-operative Party candidate is Angeliki Stogia, who is standing for a fourth term as councillor in Whalley Range.
Also, due to the Conservative government’s continued failure to negotiate an acceptable Brexit deal, the UK did not leave the EU in March and the country will now hold elections to the European Parliament. These take place on Thursday 23 May (three weeks later than the locals) and are completely separate.
Unlike tomorrow’s, there is still time to register to vote for the Euro elections if you aren’t already on the electoral register but you need to do it by next Tuesday (7th). If you’re not sure how, see our Q&A guide here. There is also still time to apply for a postal vote – the deadline is the following day (Wednesday 8th) by 5pm.
2019 Manifesto
Manchester Labour asked the people what mattered to them and in Manchester caring for the most vulnerable is our key priority. We used the 2017 Labour Party Manifesto to create something radical and this one builds on the promises we made a year ago and the progress we have made in delivering those promises. This is the manifesto
We’re continuing this year with strong and radical promises about the work we will do to create a better city.
