As the political party of the co-operative movement, we believe that things work best when ordinary people have a voice, and when services are accountable to the people who use them.
Railways run as a partnership between passengers and staff. Giving renters the right to own a stake in their home via co-op housing. Fans having a say in their sports club. Credit unions as an alternative to rip-off payday lenders. Shops owned by their customers that give back to the community.
Whether in government or opposition, for a century the Co-operative Party has been a voice for co-op values and principles in the places where decisions are taken, and laws are made.
More about usJoin the PartyOur ideas
Our principles don't stop at the shopfront.
As co-operators, we believe that the principles that lie behind successful co-operatives - giving everyone an equal say and a share in the profits - out to extend to the wider economy and society.
The Party's policy platform draws on the experience of our members, subscribing co-op societies, and our wider movement, with an opportunity for members feed in at each year's Annual Conference.
