People Before Profit has urged voters to "strike back at the ballot box" as the party launched its manifesto for Northern Ireland's council election.
It called for increased workers' wages amid the cost-of-living crisis, reform of the rates system and an overhaul of the "neoliberal" running of councils.
Other policies include an expansion of street cleaning and recycling services, bringing all council services back into public control, and an end to "wasteful" spending on private consultants.
