Labour: Together with Pride

Usercreated

1 August
Alistar Darling kicks off the Labour campaign in Glasgow, giving a speech with other prominent members of Scottish Labour.

Quote


My fellow Scotsmen, I am a son of Glasgow, I am a son of Scotland, and I am a son of the United Kingdom, but as a nation and as a people we are stronger when we work with Europe and not against them. As the leader of the Labour Party, I was elected on the promise of putting money in the hands of the people, those who know how to spend it. A Labour Government will put 20 billion pounds into the NHS in the next 5 years. A Labour Government will fight for equality for all in this nation and around the world, and a Labour government will fight for a living wage to ensure that all Britain’s share in the prosperity.

For too long have the Conservatives have been allowed to rule this country by whim, we need strong leadership to lead this nation in a time where there is the utmost uncertainty, I ask what Britain cast their vote for David Cameron? Britain is a nation made by the workers, but the Conservatives have seen to forgot that, the Prime Minister will make it seem like they’re willing to work with the other side, but they’re not. They’ve allied their government with the Far-Right with the likes of Nigel Farage taking a leading role in governing our nation. I will be the first to say, Extremist views have no place in Britain, we are a nation of diversity and prosperity, two things the Conservative government has abandoned.

We as members of the Labour Party must accept our role in ushering in a new age of Britain, an age of inclusion, an age of strength, and an age of progress. For the last 7 years, the Conservative Government has fought against those very things, they have fought to weaken our nation in its time of need, and they have tried to break our relationship with Europe, but we must persevere as it is coming to an end, because I believe the people of our nation have seen that the Conservatives stand for the interests of those who make a million pounds a year, and not those who they claim to represent. In this election season, I ask you, my brothers and sisters in Scottish Labour and Labour across the nation to stand up and vote, vote out the Conservative Government that has drug our nation to these depths, and vote for a Labour Government that will bring our nation from these depths to new and greater horizons.

Following the campaign kickoff, Darling went to an abandoned industrial park in outer Glasgow and delivered a speech on the failures of the Conservative Government on Britain and with the benefits of a Labour government.

Quote

A Britain with a Labour government is one where we see this park working again. A Britain with a Labour Government is one where we bring people up so they don’t have to live on food banks. A Conservative Government has lost Britain these jobs and made many Britains turn to the food banks to make ends meet. With a Labour Government, we will take the fight to poverty and not turn our backs on those of our people so much in need. How do we claim to be strong as a nation, when our immediate moral fibre is weak, we are as strong as our weakest link, and what have the Conservatives done to strengthen the position of these impoverished peoples? More people than ever rely on food banks.

Last year the UN published a report concluding that the Conservative Government had committed Grave, systematic violations of the rights of persons with disabilities. Currently, 4.2 million people with disabilities live in poverty in Britain, and the disability pay gap remains stubbornly high. As a government Labour will fight back against the joblessness, homelessness, and food insecurity that plagues our nation. We need to put money in the hands of the consumers, so we can help our small businesses keep working for Britain.

Labour will continue to put money in the hands of hardworking people in Scotland, Wales, England, and Northern Ireland. Because we work, for the people of this nation. If you elect us your government expect a stronger Britain, and a Britain that stays in the EU, and a Britain that stays whole. We need to focus on fighting against the like of Nigel Farage and Paul Nuttall who try to tear our nation apart and tear the European community apart. Not as Scotsman, but as a Britain I say, Stronger Together.


Alistair Darling takes a train to Edinburgh, where he comments on his plans for public transport and then holds a surgery with MP's Ian Murray the Shadow Secretary of State for Scotland, and Paul Sweeney the Shadow Minister for Scotland in Edinburgh.


To end the day, Darling takes the train south to the region of northeast England.

Scotland Campaign Constants
Focus on attracting Younger Voters in Glasgow, Edinburgh, and other cities in Scotland
Use Grassroots Labour support to pass advertisments on the ground, focus on densley populated areas
Capitalize on the unpopularity of the Conservative government in Scotland (Remain voters) by painting Labour as the only real alternative to a Conservative Government.
Emphasize the Scottish background of Alistair Darling, "The Scottish Choice".

2 August

Alistair Darling holds a town hall in Durham focusing on making a more equal and fair Britain, and a holding a Labour volunteer drive. 

Meet with the MPs of Northeastern Labour, the 8 MPs for Labour in Northeast England are 
1. MP Ian Mearns Chairman of the Backbench Business Committee
2. MP Andy McDonald Secretary of State for Business
3. MP Chi Onwurah Spokesperson for Industrial Strategy
4. MP Laura Pidcock Spokesperson for Labour
5. MP Alan Campbell Frontbench Deputy Chief Whip
6. MP Ian Lavery Chairman of the Labour Party
7. MP Sharon Hodgson Spokesperson of Public Health
8. MP Paul Williams

Darling then went to a town hall event where he discussed his plan to put money in the hands of the workers in this region, and across the nation.

Speak to Northeast England Young Labour in Durham on the importance of fixing the United Kingdom's Education system.

Quote
Education is a crucial issue here in the Northeast, and across Britain. As Prime Minister and as leader of a Labour Government, we promise to make sure all of our nations primary and secondary school teachers have a masters degree because we want the British youth to be taught by the best and brightest. We will also be making it easier to achieve a University education, and raising the pay of our teachers.

That is why, as a nation, we need to continue to be on the forefront of education and the values we stand for. Following the General Election, I would like to form a government to fix Britain's schools, because as we saw with the death of Councillor Carson violence, comes from those who know, no better. We need to end violence in the United Kingdon, and having a better-educated populace is one way we can do that. 

I look back on my friend Jo Cox murdered before the Referendum a few years ago, and the man who killed was a man like any other in Britain, but he couldn't settle a debate with words he settled it with violence. I look back on her, and I think we need to make sure that never happens again. That is why a strong independent Britain needs strong independent schooling. Labour is the Teacher's choice, the Progressive Choice, and the British Choice. Thank you all. 


Following the speech to young Labour, Darling appeared with Sharon Hodgson and Laura Pidcock to promote Labour's strong record on women's issues and Labour issues at a surgery.

To end the day give a train stop speech to supporters in Newcastle Upon Tyne on the state of British public transit. Promising a Labour Government will end 9 years of Conservative Government mismanagement and destruction by the Conservatives.

Following the speech, he takes the train to London to prepare for the Labour Manifesto launch.

Northeastern Campaign Constants
Focus on attracting Younger Voters and Working-class voters in Newcastle Upon Tyne, Durham, Darlington, Washington, Sunderland and other cities in the Region

Local MPs campaign in their home areas, with MP Paul Williams reaching out to younger voters primarily, and MP Chi Onwurah reaching out to the minority communities of these cities.

Quote
Hello! We are Labour! This is Labour land here, and we're going to make Westminster Labour land too! We need to look at our great Manifesto though, we're protecting our schools, we're fighting for expanding and improving healthcare, and we're making British schools the best in the world. We are going to reinvigorate our coastlines with the Blue New Deal proposal, and we will continue to make progressive improvements, to benefit British workers, British consumers, and the British people as a whole.


We need a nation that works for the people, the Conservative government doesn't work for the people they work for themselves. We need to fight, tooth and nail for this nation to bring it back from the grips of destruction it is at now. Welsh, Scottish, English, or Irish we are all apart of this union and we need to stay apart of the union. That is why we are investing into our education system, to improve the lives of all Britains, that is why we are investing into the NHS to improve the lives of all Britains, and that is why we are putting money into the community because we know they need it.


Following the launch of the manifesto, Darling would campaign in north London with a pair of left-wing MPs, Jeremy Corbyn and David Lammy they focused on Labour's Healthcare, and Education proposals to win over voters in Tottenham and Islington.


Speak to Labour volunteers in Islington about the need for a strong campaign this year to ensure that Britain stays in the European Union.

Prepare for the upcoming debates with Jeremy Corbyn playing the role of David Cameron, and Keir Starmer playing the role of Nick Clegg.

Hold a surgery in South London with Dianne Abbott, Gareth West, and Emily Thornberry discussing issues with the constituents of the city of London, continue the focus of the campaign on Education, Healthcare, and Workers Rights.

Labour: Together With Pride


August 4

Continue campaigning in London with prominent MPs of Labour. Focus on South and West London to drive out turnout, while Corbyn focuses on campaigning in his North London stronghold, and former Leader Dianne Abbott campaigns with Darling showing unity between the two branches of the party.

Meet with volunteers, to focus on blasting the Tories on wanting to leave the EU, question David Cameron's promises on leaving the EU with, "Mr.Prime Minister weren't you a Remainer. Chancellor Darling keeps his word."

Give an interview to the BBC on his priorities if Labour secures a majority,

Quote
I: How do you feel about the attacks from CHUK, the SNP, and the Conservatives.

AD: Well, when it comes to leaving the EU, It's a disaster and Prime Minister Cameron says he's gonna do it, but you all remember where he was during the campaign, he was campaigning to remain. The SNP and Change say I'm not strong on Scotland, or strong on the European Union. I tell them where were they during the campaign for both? I was on the frontlines with members of parties, and members of the public to defeat both. We weren't successful in the latter, but we did defeat what would have been disastrous Independence for Scotland, England and Scotland are better together, and the UK and Europe are better together. Mrs.Sturgeon if you're in favour of Britain staying then why are you in favour of tearing our nation apart? 

I: What is your first priority as Prime Minister in a Labour government?

AD: Our first priority is to fix our nation's problems, the problems this Conservative Government has let hamper Britains for too long. We will settle the issue with the European Union, and let it be known a vote for Labour is a vote for remaining in the European Union, a vote for fixing our schools, and a vote reinvigorating our economy. Because we need a Britain that works for all and not a Britain that works for those the Conservatives say it should.

End the day with a speech to a group in Southwest London, blasting the Liberal Democrats for lying to the British people, by saying they'll protect trade unions, but really supporting free trade.



August 5

Finish tour of London with a constituency surgery with Corbyn, and Abbott showing party unity between the more centre and farther left areas of the party.

Speak on public infrastructure at a stop in Cardiff.

Bring the campaign to Wales, by praising Plaid Cymru and giving a short address in Welsh on the importance of Welsh values, and promising to promote further devolution. "The reason we have devolved governments is you the people and a Labour government. Send Labour back to Westminister so we can continue to work hard.

Meet with Welsh Labour MPs and discuss a surrogate strategy to speak with as many Welsh voters as possible before the election.

Travel to the north of Wales, to speak with farmers, and coastal communities about reinvigorating their industries.

Finish the day in Swansea commenting on how the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats have abandoned the workers of the city and how Labour and Darling need their help to bring about actual change to Westminster and bring jobs back to Swansea.


August 6

Return to London, with a quick stop in east London to meet with top campaign spokespeople, and surrogates for the city.

Hold a surgery with Dianne Abbott and Jeremy Corbyn, as well as Former Prime Minister John McDonnell showing a unified Labour ready to combat the Tories, Lib Dems and Greens going forward.

Speak to Young Labour telling them to tell their friends to vote, their moms and dads and all Britians. Whether it is for Labour or another party, their main function is to drive the wheels of Democracy in the United Kingdom.

In an interview with the Daily Mirror, blast David Cameron's leadership of the nation as a puppet to Prime Minister Leadsom. We need a Prime Minister who is Independent, not one who is a lackey to a failed Brexiteer.

End the day with MPs from both sides of the party. Meet with grassroots activists of Labour pledging to help keep them in the fight in this crucial time for the party, as we need to take the fight to the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats.
August 7

Begin the day with a speech emphasizing Labour's fight to end homelessness in the United Kingdom in the north London neighbourhoods of Tottenham and Islington. 

Hold a surgery in South London talking to the people on the issues that matter the most to them, focusing on gathering voters for Labour and blasting the Liberal Democrats and Conservative Government.

End the campaign for the week, with a speech to Labour volunteers in Tottenham with support of British workers, and for healthcare and education.
