Scottish Cooperative Party Equality Platform 2021.

The Co-operative Party is the party of equality. The values that keep us united together is based on social justice and human rights. The Co-operative values that we cherish are rooted in the fundamental truth that regardless of your background, you should have the means and opportunity to fulfil your true potential.

But we accept that while we have made great inroads in fighting for true equality, there is much more we can do and the 2021 Scottish elections give us a great opportunity to continue that fight. From protecting and progressing LGBTI rights, taking the fight against Islamophobia, tackling the massive pay gap that BAME workers still face today, increasing accessibility for the disabled, there is much to do.

To do this, over the next two weeks we want to get your thoughts on a new Scottish Co-operative Equality Platform for the 2021 Scottish Parliament election. Not only will we ask for support from the Scottish Labour Leader, but we'll be asking all endorsed Co-operative candidates to endorse and support the manifesto. We'll be taking our values to the heart of Scottish democracy.

You are welcome to fill as much as possible. We will then analyze and hope to incorporate as much as possible in our first ever Scottish Co-operative Equality Platform.
