While Starmer's Labour seeks to position itself as the party of big business and law and order, many workers and young people will be wondering who they can vote for that will advance their interests - starting with this May's local elections.
That's why over 260 Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition candidates are standing in council and mayoral contests across England. These include Socialist Party members alongside other working class activists who see the need for building a socialist alternative to the three establishment parties.
Though there's no council elections in Birmingham itself this time, we've been busy campaigning in neighbouring councils including Solihull, Bromsgrove, Sandwell, Dudley, Wolverhampton and Coventry.
Can you help spread the word about our Socialist challenge to the red, blue and yellow tories? Between now and polling day we'll be out delivering leaflets, canvassing and speaking to local residents every day.
For more information on how you can help our people powered campaign, including donating to fund the cause, just get in touch.
We'll also be holding public meetings, where anyone who's interested in hearing about why we're standing and how a new mass workers party can be built can come down and join the debate:
