Fixing Bournemouth’s Economy

Bournemouth is brilliant, but we’re being held back. We have immense potential and, even in challenging times, our businesses are leading the way.

Our economy excels in finance, higher education, and hospitality - but it has nothing to do with this Government, it has everything to do with you. We have the potential to strengthen these sectors and lead the world in the new and growing industries of the future.

We all know the problems facing our economy. People will make up their own minds about why Bournemouth is falling further behind similar places and working people are feeling undervalued. But it’s time for change.

Rachel Reeves MP, Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Labour’s Parliamentary Candidate for Bournemouth East Tom Hayes have launched a survey to hear from you. They want to know your ideas and solutions.

Tom Hayes, Labour’s Parliamentary Candidate for Bournemouth East, said: “You have a choice at this election. More of the same with this Government and their MP or your first ever Labour MP, working with your first Labour Government for fourteen years. Bournemouth is being ignored and taken for granted by the Conservatives. With a Labour Government, we could finally get the attention and investment we need. Please fill in our survey and I will share your thoughts with Rachel Reeves and her team, and seek to organise a visit which enables some of you to share these experiences directly with him. We can put our economy back on its feet, but we need to hear from you.”
