The North East Party - Standing up for North East England
The North East Party is a progressive and democratic political party which is
committed to
improving the lives and increasing the opportunities of the
people of North East England.
We campaign for fair
taxation, the fair distribution of national resources and the
provision of
world class public services which are fully accountable to North East
people
through empowering regional devolution, accountable local governance
and
effective representation in the UK and European Parliaments.
Formed in
June 2014, we stand up fearlessly and independently for the best interests
of
North East England and challenge all other parties at elections at all levels.
The North East Party is accountable to its growing membership through the
annual
election of officers and daily communication through social media.
All members are entitled to attend our monthly all members policy meetings, our
annual policy forum
and to stand for election to our organising Executive
Committee.
We are beginning to develop a branch structure which will
facilitate
campaigning at a constituency or council level.
At the
General Election 2015 we stood good local candidates in four seats
Newcastle
North, Easington, Stockton North and Redcar.
Despite being new and having
very limited funding we received over 2100 votes.
Above all
we enjoyed a very favourable reception from North East people and we
have
grown in confidence and determination to do better in future.
The North
East Party has already won two seats in bye-elections for Peterlee Town Council
and we are very proud
that Cllr Mary Cartwright who made history with our
first ever election success last December
has now been elected Mayor of
Peterlee.
The North East Party already has excellent relationships with
our neighbours in Yorkshire First
and we are forming contacts to the north
with the SNP.
One day, we are confident that we will emulate the success
of the SNP in making devolution work well
and in achieving the overwhelming
engagement and support of North East people.
Please join us and join in.
The North East Party is a very exciting place to be.
