工党副领导人呼吁重新团结进步派选民备战2029年大选

英国工党副领导人Lucy Powell表示，工党必须重新团结进步派选民联盟才能在下次大选中取胜1。Powell指出，工党需要从绿党、苏格兰民族党等党派吸引回进步派选民，同时清晰传达工党的核心价值观和政策主张1。她强调，工党应当明确传达"工人权利和免费托儿服务时间"等政策选择1。

近两年来首次，民调显示工党可能在下次大选中赢得多数席位1。总理Andy Burnham上周五拒绝提前选举，确认下次大选将在2029年举行1。Powell表示工党在与改革英国党的竞争中已经"赢得"了梅克菲尔德等地的选举1。

此外，Powell将在党大会上宣布扩大学校反骚扰工作的计划1。

Lucy Powell, deputy leader of the Labour Party, has called for the party to rebuild its coalition of progressive voters in order to secure victory in the next general election.1 According to Powell, Labour's polling position has improved under Prime Minister Andy Burnham, who rejected calls for an early election last Friday and confirmed the next general election is scheduled for 2029.1 For the first time in two years, recent polling suggests Labour could achieve a majority at the next election.1

Powell emphasized that Labour must clearly communicate its policy priorities to recapture voters who have shifted to other progressive parties such as the Green Party and the Scottish National Party.1 She highlighted the need to articulate positions on issues including workers' rights and free childcare provision.1 Powell also claimed Labour has already won electoral contests against the Reform UK party in areas such as Macclesfield.1 At the party conference, she announced an expansion of anti-harassment initiatives in schools.1
