NW Essex Labour For a fairer, greener Essex
Be part of making history
Welcome! We are the Labour Party covering Saffron Walden, Dunmow, Stansted, Broomfield and all the beautiful villages in-between. In 2024 we have a historic opportunity – the Tories have never been so unpopular with our rural voters. Opinion polls show that, with tactical voting, Labour can win the area, causing a upset by defeating Kemi Badenoch.
Excited? We are. Come and join our friendly volunteers and help push us to victory in North West Essex.
