The 2024 Labour Manifesto is now online!
I am genuinely excited by loads of it, especially the green policies and the expansion of workers’ rights, but probably the most important part of it is the stuff aimed at economic growth.
What do you think? Love it? Hate it? Inspired to volunteer? Some more sensible, moderate emotion?
No mention of anything related to reducing reliance on cars and investing in public transport and micro mobility or something of the sort? A major area of climate goals completely missing.
Yeah, it is kind of disappointing to see all the pro-car stuff. In the section on Transport, they do mention trains and buses, too, but I’m not sure cycling comes up at all. Obviously they’re trying to counter the dumb Tory anti-ULEZ stuff, but it’d be nice to see something that wasn’t a defensive crouch sometimes.
