London Socialist Alliance

A socialist alternative to Blair's New Labour in London

The Socialist Alliance stands for -

keeping the tube in public ownership and control

decent, affordable homes for all

high quality comprehensive education

proper investment in our health and emergency services

Above all we need decent services to meet the needs of Londoners We oppose all privatisations, including PFI and so called "Best Value". We stand together with all those fighting against cuts in jobs and services.

jobs with decent wages for all who want to work

a 35-hour week without loss of pay

a minimum wage of a least £7 an hour

and full trade union rights for all

dignity and decent benefits for the retired and those who cannot work

restoring benefits and pensions to give a decent standard of living for all

an end to all discrimination on the grounds of race, sex, nationality, religion, age, disability or sexuality

streets free from the fear of crime and from harassment by the police

a world safe from environmental destruction

We will finance a huge job creation scheme in London of house building, transport restructuring, school and hospital building - by levying a tax on the profits of the banks and finance houses of the City of London.

We will put people before profit

By supporting the Socialist Alliance you can elect people to the Greater London Assembly who will speak up for workers, the jobless, pensioners and students, and against the bankers, the bosses and the profiteers.

You can speak out against the way New Labour has abandoned many of those who elected it in 1997, in order to serve big business. And you can say you want a government that serves the working class as the Tories serve the rich.

It’s time for the left to unite. Join with us!
