To fund an additional member of staff for Stella Creasy's Campaign team.
In over 16 years of being a Labour and Co-operative MP, I'm proud of the difference we have made together: fighting for donation caps to protect UK democracy, banning payday lenders ripping off our community; pushing back against the madness of Brexit as Chair of the Labour Movement for Europe; or standing up for the rights of women to access a safe and legal abortion across the UK.
Life is tough for many in our community and our country, as the enduring cost of living crisis, conflict around the world and inequality damage the prospects of many. Now more than ever they need politicians unafraid to fight for the solutions to the challenges they face so that they can realise their potential.
Yet British public life has become polluted with a toxic culture of abuse, harassment and defeat — fed by those who want to deny progressive political campaigns can be a force for good in our world. Now more than ever I recognise the need to show in word and deed that change is possible. Where we show — on issues from cheap energy to safer streets — that through collaboration we can achieve radical progress in our society. From Walthamstow to Westminster, we need to show those who wish to divide us also wish to hold us back. When we stand up for what we believe in we show them that We Can Build It Better.
That's why I'm asking for your help to stand up for True Labour, and ensure Walthamstow's voice is as loud as it can be for a better future for all.
With your donations I can help pay for the staff and support our campaigns require. I don't take any large donations or have any second jobs and I refuse to use unpaid interns, so I rely on supporters like you to be able to have the team I need to campaign. Every pound will go towards campaigning and organising on the issues that matter.
Any individual who is registered on the UK electoral register (a British citizen, or an Irish, EU or qualifying Commonwealth citizen living in the UK) is able to make a political donation. Please note, we will ask for your details to be able to verify you are eligible to donate and if we can't confirm you are eligible to donate, we will cancel the donation.
