Labour in Leeds

"The choice as we approach the City Council elections in May is very clear. A Conservative and Lib Dem Coalition experiencing a crisis in competence, confidence and vision, or Labour, a group committed to providing, protecting, and re-establishing vital services for every person in Leeds and ensuring we have prosperity and compassion." Councillor Keith Wakefield, Leader of the Labour Group on Leeds City Council.
