Welcome to the
website of the Renfrewshire Labour Party
The Labour Party is a
democratic socialist party. We believe that by the strength
of our common endeavour we achieve more than we achieve
alone, so as to create for each of us the means to realise
our true potential and for all of us a community in which
power, wealth and opportunity are in the hands of the many,
not the few.
Renfrewshire Labour are working hard to deliver on this
principle in Renfrewshire where our dedicated Labour team of
Councillors, MSPs, MPs, MEPs and activists are helping to
make Renfrewshire, Scotland and the whole of Britain the
country we all want.

Labour’s five point plan for jobs and growth
The
Tory-led Government’s austerity plan is hurting, but it isn’t
working.
.
There is a better way - a real plan for jobs and growth to get our
economy moving again, and help get the deficit down in a steadier,
more balanced way:
.
1: A £2 billion tax on bank bonuses to fund 100,000 jobs for
young people – which they would be required to take-up – and build
25,000 more affordable homes.
.
2:
Bringing forward
long term investment projects – schools, roads and transport – to
get people back to work and strengthen our economy for the future.
.
3:
Reversing the
Tory-led Government’s damaging VAT rise now for a temporary period –
a £450 boost for a couple with children – immediate help for our
high streets and for struggling families and pensioners.
.
4:
A one year cut in
VAT to 5% on home improvements, repairs and maintenance – to help
homeowners and small businesses.
.
5:
A one year
national insurance tax break for every small firm which takes on
extra workers – helping small businesses to grow and create jobs.
.
