| Labour's Seven Pledges For LeicesterZero Tolerance on Crime and Grime
We will show
zero tolerance on crime and anti-social behaviour, on grime, litter, graffiti, and empty
housing. We will employ new City Wardens to be the eyes, ears and hands of the
Council in achieving this.
A
Greener City

10,000 trees, improve our parks, invest in clean energy & reduce pollution. We want to
protect the planet for all our futures.
The Pensioners
Passport
We will give
pensioners free travel on the buses, a discount to the DeMontfort Hall, the new Performing
Arts Centre, and all Leicester City Council leisure centres.
A
Working City
Create a
City Development Company to regenerate the City and local neighbourhoods and create
more jobs in Leicester.
A
Connected City
We will
improve the bus station. Introduce 3 further Park and Ride schemes introduce
greener electric buses, single ticketing- the Leicester Card which can be used on
all city buses.
Leicester
for Children and Culture
We will
make Leicester a child friendly city, by building a new Childrens Hub in the
city centre, and making new and well maintained play areas a priority. We will improve our
leisure centres, museums & libraries, by extending their opening hours. We will build
on the good race relations in the city ensuring we have one city working together for all
communities.
A Laptop
for all Primary School Children
We will give every
primary school child access to a laptop computer providing informal learning through the
internet. We will improve the achievement of all our children, to equal that of the best
in comparable cities. We will put schools at the heart of our communities and make school
facilities available out of hours to local people.
