A tougher approach to fly tipping, improving education standards and bringing leisure services back in house are some of the things Labour says it would do if voted to run Merthyr Tydfil Council after May’s elections. Labour, who have been in opposition on Merthyr Tydfil Council since 2017, have laid out what they will do if people vote for them in the local elections on May 5.
Their manifesto has explained what a Labour -run council would do on education, playgrounds and parks, leisure services and bus services among other things. The manifesto says that these have been tough times with the floods and the coronavirus pandemic and now the cost of living crisis with rising food and energy costs and a rise in National Insurance contributions. It says that they will continue to work closely with Welsh Government to invest in and improve things that matter to people.
