Investing in Our Public Services

Taxing the Super Rich for the Greater Good

Imagine an NHS where waiting times are short, healthcare professionals are abundant, and facilities are top-notch. By taxing the wealthiest individuals and large corporations, we can raise billions to invest directly into our NHS. This will ensure that our local hospitals and clinics provide the best care possible.

Education for a Brighter Future

Our children deserve the best education. With increased funding, we can improve our schools, hire more teachers, and reduce class sizes. Smaller classes mean more individual attention for each student, leading to better learning outcomes and a brighter future for our kids.

Building Sustainable Infrastructure

Green Energy Revolution

Picture a community powered by clean, renewable energy. By developing community-owned wind farms and solar panels, we can reduce our carbon footprint, create local jobs, and keep energy profits within our community. It’s a win-win for everyone in Ossett and Denby Dale!

Reliable and Eco-Friendly Public Transport

Imagine hopping on an electric bus that’s on time, affordable, and environmentally friendly. We aim to improve and expand our public transportation system, making it easier for everyone to get around while reducing our environmental impact.

Promoting Sustainable Agriculture

Innovative Farming Techniques

Let’s support the establishment of vertical farms and hydroponic systems right here in Yorkshire. These innovative farming methods use less land and water, and they can produce fresh, local food all year round. It’s a sustainable solution that benefits both our community and the environment.

AI for Natural Weed Control

By investing in cutting-edge technology like AI to manage weeds naturally, we can reduce our reliance on harmful pesticides. Healthier soil and crops mean better food for all of us.

Creating Technology Jobs

Tech Hubs for the Future

Imagine Ossett and Denby Dale as thriving tech hubs, attracting startups and tech companies. Establishing technology hubs and incubators will create high-paying jobs and diversify our local economy. We’ll also offer training programs in digital skills, coding, and green technologies to prepare our workforce for the jobs of the future.

Supporting Local Agriculture

Farmers' Markets and Local Food Networks

Let’s make it easier to buy fresh, locally-produced food and support our farmers. Encouraging the growth of farmers’ markets and local food networks will strengthen our community and promote healthy eating.

Enhancing Education

Sustainable Schools

Our schools can be both excellent and environmentally friendly. By retrofitting our schools with energy-efficient technologies and sustainable practices, we create healthier learning environments and reduce operational costs.

Smaller Class Sizes

With more teachers and smaller class sizes, every child receives the individual attention they need to thrive. It’s an investment in our future that we can’t afford to overlook.

The Northern Forest: A Green Legacy

Since 2018, the Northern Forest has established over 3 million new trees, transforming our landscape from coast to coast and enriching cities with green spaces. This massive reforestation project is a testament to the power of sustainable initiatives. More trees mean cleaner air, reduced flood risks, and enhanced biodiversity. It’s a green legacy that benefits us all.
