Despairing about politics?
You can help turn it all around on 4 July

The Tories are toast. Starmer’s Labour will win this General Election by default but they aren’t offering any solutions to the Tories’ ruinous record. We deserve better than this race to the bottom.

Sign up to We Deserve Better for information about campaigning in key, winnable seats near you, and donate to our emergency election campaign fund to help us build an alternative based on the politics of hope.

It couldn't be more urgent to support socialist, environmentalist, pro-Palestinian independent and Green candidates. They are underdogs in the First Past the Post electoral system, and they don’t have an establishment party machine behind them or corporate donors. The snap election also means we have very little time, but we can win if enough of us mobilise to knock on doors and phonebank for candidates in the most winnable seats. In particular, Jeremy Corbyn in Islington North; Carla Denyer in Bristol Central; Leanne Mohamad campaigning to unseat Wes Streeting in Ilford North; Faiza Shaheen who was blocked by Labour in Chingford and Woodford Green, and the Green candidate Sian Berry in Brighton Pavillion.

Labour wants you to think there is no alternative, but there is. You can send Labour a message and support transformative policies from taxing the rich to fund public services, backing public ownership, tackling the climate crisis and opposing war crimes in Gaza and around the world, safe in the knowledge that there’s no risk of the Tories getting back into government.

Rishi Sunak unexpectedly announcing a snap election for 4th July means independents and Greens have far less time but we’re working to raise as much money as possible to support their campaigns and mobilise as many people as possible to knock on doors and phonebank.

If we don’t act, we’re showing Labour they can ignore us and continue to lurch further to the right without any accountability. Sign up for information about campaigning for candidates in key seats and donate now to help build the alternative.

Thousands of people have already joined our movement and together we’ve created a campaign fund to support candidates who are part of the alternative.
