The commitments we would like to see from the 3 candidates for Liverpool Mayor @CllrAnnaRothery @ann_obyrne & @CllrWendySimon.

3. Lead a #CommunityWealthBuilding strategy for Liverpool.
4. Work to bring local services in-house and maintain close, cooperative links with the council workforce and their unions.

7. A strong commitment to transparency and the most rigorous scrutiny of investments and developments.
8. Call for the whip to be restored to @jeremycorbyn and for unfairly suspended CLP officers to be reinstated so we can unite and train our fire on the Tories.
