We are delighted that 3 of our candidates at this year’s Council elections will be sponsored by our sister party the Co-operative Party. Janet Marsh (Silhill), Nick Stephens (Lyndon) and Martin Tolman (Blythe) will all be standing as our joint Labour and Co-op Party candidates under a long-standing agreement between the 2 parties.
The Co-op Party is the political wing of the co-operative movement believing in the sharing of wealth and power through democratic ownership of utilities and public services. Notable recent campaigns, led by the Co-op Party, have included fighting Modern Day Slavery, protecting our shop-workers and regulating pay-day lenders. More information on the Co-op Party can be found at https://party.coop/about/
If elected our Co-op sponsored candidates will work with residents in Solihull to give them a real say in how local services are delivered, working with hundreds of other Co-op party Councillors throughout Britain.
