My vision of hope and the<br />
next Labour Government<br />
I have a serious plan for troubled times – a plan which has<br />
its focus on winning the next general election in order to<br />
rebuild and transform Britain.<br />
At the heart of my strategy for a Labour Government is<br />
a plan to grow our movement by organising communities<br />
and using the most advanced techniques online and<br />
offline. We must make Labour a living, breathing<br />
movement in every corner of our country that gains the<br />
trust of the British people and gives them real hope of a<br />
better future.<br />
Our overriding task is winning the next general election,<br />
so that we can begin putting our progressive polices into<br />
action. The growth in our party’s membership has been<br />
incredible. Labour is now the largest political party in<br />
Europe. Our greatest asset is our members, who will carry<br />
our message across the country. I will make sure that our<br />
membership is engaged and campaigning on the ground<br />
to spread the message that no one, and nowhere, will ever<br />
be left behind under a Labour Government.<br />
The next Labour Government will make Britain thrive<br />
again and give it a chance to build strong foundations. I<br />
want to create a million homes and a million jobs across<br />
the UK to help guarantee a decent standard of living for all.<br />

Labour will build a Britain that works for everyday<br />
people, rewarding their hard work and saving the NHS<br />
that they rely on. The Labour Party created the NHS and<br />
we are so proud of it; we will give our all into restoring<br />
the damage that the Tory party has done to it. We will<br />
end health service privatisation and bring services into a<br />
secure, publicly-provided NHS – as it should be. We will<br />
integrate the NHS and social care for older and disabled<br />
people, funding dignity across the board and finally giving<br />
our mental health services the time and money it so<br />
desperately needs.<br />
The next general election will be a contest between<br />
the Tory Party austerity machine and its powerful allies,<br />
and the social movement and trade unions underpinning<br />
our reinvigorated Labour Party. That means every member<br />
campaigning for every vote, using the skills and experience<br />
of our membership to deliver our strong Labour message:<br />
Britain needs a Labour Government focussed on delivering<br />
for the whole country.<br />

Working together, we can rebuild Britain as a country<br />
where everyone plays a part, and everyone has a say. That<br />
is both the country we need to be and the only way we<br />
can succeed.
