đŸ”„Today we launched our manifesto for the Holyrood elections! đŸ”„

In just over a month's time, this country is going to the polls to vote in the Scottish Government elections. At the same time, the far right are taking control across the world and in the UK. And still our politicians are promising more of the same. After nearly twenty years of austerity, we know that promising the same will get us nowhere.

That’s why today we have launched our manifesto calling for:
* ‘real rent controls’ that bring rents down
* A mass programme of social housing to reduce reliance on the Private sector
* Retrofits to make our homes warmer and dryer
* a joined up publicly owned public transport system;
* and the replacement of council tax.

We deserve more than politicians who promise to make things slightly better before delivering nothing for us and everything to big businesses.

We need to reverse the tide. Let’s build power in our communities.
