WHO Labour will nominate to replace Slough MP Fiona Mactaggart at the June 8 general election is set to be decided today, Friday.
A shortlist has been drawn up by the Labour National Executive Committee for female only candidates, which is Labour policy where previous MPs had been women too.
One of those looking to get the nod is the deputy leader of Slough Borough Council, Sabia Hussain, who also leads the authority for social care, public health and education.
Cllr Hussain, 36, of Bath Road, Slough, said she was delighted to be chosen for interview. She said: “There are many inequalities in Slough that haven’t been addressed and it is very important that we have a Labour government in power and a Labour MP .”
