Thriving households and businesses

"Economic stability is essential for us all to thrive. Labour will never play fast and loose with the economy and will root out waste, corruption and those abusing taxpayers' money. I will support local businesses to thrive with reform of business rates and tackling anti-social behaviour."

Great quality healthcare and prevention

"As well as cutting waiting times, ending the 8am scramble for GP appointments and improving cancer survival rates, I am committed to preventing illness through tackling the causes of ill health, better screening, early help and support particularly for young people's mental health."

Warm homes and homegrown clean energy

"Everyone deserves a warm home, with affordable clean energy. Morecambe and Lunesdale also needs the good jobs, new careers and retraining that come with investment in clean energy, home insulation and home energy upgrades. Energy security is also our country's security."

Public transport that works

"We are committed to reforming public transport so that local communities can take back control of their buses. We will also take the railways back into public ownership so that train services work for passengers as well as using experts to review our transport infrastructure."

A strong voice for all communities

"The different needs of our towns and villages means we need a strong voice in Westminster that works for all communities, both urban and rural. I am committed to working with every community to get the best for our area."
