Labour has unveiled a comprehensive plan to revitalize Britain's economy and address housing issues. The party promises significant investment in the country's ports, which is described as the most substantial in a generation, aiming to create 650,000 good jobs nationwide. This initiative is part of Labour's Green Prosperity Plan, which also includes proposals for building new homes on 'grey belt' sites to increase housing availability while maintaining green spaces. The plan emphasizes the importance of affordable housing, with a commitment to ensuring 50% of homes on new sites are affordable, focusing on social rent to address the housing crisis effectively. It involves tens of billions of private sector investment and promises hundreds of thousands of well-paid jobs.
Labour will reform our planning system to deliver affordable homes, better public services, and improved green spaces across Britain. https://t.co/GA7ZwAcIbs
Really positive to see @UKLabour commit to 50% affordable housing on new sites released through the ‘grey belt’. This could be a gamechanger if it plans to prioritise social rent homes, which is the only genuinely affordable form of housing and solution to the housing emergency. https://t.co/UOZuUIRBpd
Sir Keir said: "Labour supports brownfield-first policies. But we must be honest, we cannot build the homes Britain needs without also releasing some land currently classed as green belt.” Be very afraid in the south of Bucks
Build more houses! Just not here, there, or anywhere it seems🤔 Labour will reform our planning system and protect and improve green spaces while providing the schools and GPs people need. We're taking on the blockers and building homes for Bristolians 🌹 #VoteLabour https://t.co/eEiwGVwmP2
The Tories have broken Britain, Labour will bankrupt Britain under Starmergeddon. Only Reform UK is ready to save Britain🇬🇧 https://t.co/Z7clxWspGD
More homes with Labour means more schools, doctors and green spaces, and security for more families. This is why it matters to me. https://t.co/CJ9BJHXxt4
A Labour government working in partnership with @LabourBristol to build the sustainable houses the people in our city deserve is exactly what we need. Leadership. Decisive action. Deliverable plans. The only party in Bristol which demonstrates all three. #VoteLabour https://t.co/fjtz9sXtoZ
Labour unveils plans for new housing on 'grey belt' https://t.co/t7bS9Ewczf
Labour’s announcement about creating “grey belt” sites and prioritising those for development consolidates what they’ve said since last year’s conference in Liverpool. This is smart, working with system we have rather than getting bogged down in trying to pass new planning laws…
Good to see these proposals, particularly the focus on affordable homes. Building on brownfield land alone will not deliver enough homes to fix the housing crisis, so it’s right to consider how our approach to the green belt can better serve our country and our communities. https://t.co/0i7GE6wQSR
Sensible proposals on strategic use of green belt. And good to see a “golden rule” on achieving 50% affordable. We know community support for development increases when homes are affordable to local people. https://t.co/9JakJQZUEC
Labour will get Britain building again to grow our economy, create hundreds of thousands of well-paid jobs and make working people better off. Together, we can turn the page on 14 years of Conservative decline. https://t.co/z2ylydX0MO

Britain’s ports are the lifeblood of our coastal communities, and vital engines to growing our economy. Labour will deliver the most significant investment in UK ports in a generation, creating thousands of good jobs up and down the country ⛴👇 https://t.co/VlE6oVlml7
The Tories cannot fix our economy because they were the ones who broke it. @UKLabour's Green Prosperity Plan will cut bills, deliver energy security and support the creation of good jobs across Wales 🏴 https://t.co/zlzUCLQlkl
Tens of billions of private sector investment in your community. Hundreds of thousands of well-paid jobs. More money in your pocket. That's what Labour's Green Prosperity Plan will deliver. https://t.co/Ac6ImFQ0YQ

After 14 years of failure from the Tories, communities across Britain are demanding economic change in our country. That is why Labour will deliver the most significant upgrade in our ports in a generation. This is how we bring good jobs back to our industrial heartlands. 🏗️🇬🇧 https://t.co/0STWUQAwtX
My-mission driven government will create good jobs and secure billions of investment into our industrial heartlands and coastal communities. More decline under the Tories - or national renewal with Labour. That's the choice. https://t.co/0LcIUO8W1D
