Starting as we mean to go on

Andy Burnham

Prime Minister and Leader of the Labour Party

On Monday, I promised that we would change politics: taking power out of Westminster and putting the care of people at the heart of everything we do.

Dear John xxxxxx,

On Monday, I promised that we would change politics: taking power out of Westminster and putting the care of people at the heart of everything we do.

I said that by pulling together we can build a new national sense of unity, common purpose and positivity.

Because I really believe that together we can make this the moment Britain starts to believe again - the moment we bring back hope.

That work began this week.

Day one

My first instruction was to end rough sleeping at the first opportunity. Some said it would take decades. Others said it was impossible. I'm not having that.

Day two

I cut taxes on electricity bills, giving people more breathing space and putting money back in their pockets.

Day three

I capped bus fares at £2 for millions of people.

Day four

I backed thousands of pubs, clubs and music venues at the heart of our communities by cutting business rates by 20%.

Day five

Today, I worked from No 10 North, chairing the first meeting of the National Economic Council, because Britain doesn't need more decisions made in Whitehall. It needs more power in the hands of people and places that know their communities best.

John xxxxxx, these are Labour values in action and this is only the beginning.

We have started as we mean to go on: governing boldly, confidently and authentically as Labour. That is how we make this moment the circuit breaker our country needs.

Now let's make sure people hear about it.

Choose the announcement that made you think, "Yes, this is what Labour should be doing" and share it with someone you know today. That's how we tell our story.

This is only the start. There is much more to come.

But together, Labour is showing that change is possible. That is how Britain starts to believe again. That is how we bring back hope.

Thank you for being part of it.

Andy
