Labour's Shrewsbury shortlist is reduced to final three as the party bids to oust Tories at General Election
Three would be MPs are taking their case to be selected to fight the Shrewsbury seat to local members of their political party.
Labour's prospective parliamentary candidate will have to battle incumbent Conservative Daniel Kawczynski who has held the seat since 2005 as well as candidates from other parties.
The three Labour hopefuls are Julia Buckley, Carissma Griffiths, and David Parton.
Councillor Buckley, who leads her party's group on Shropshire Council, stood against the incumbent Conservative in 2019.
She said: “I am delighted to be on the short list for Shrewsbury & Atcham. With the endorsement of six trade unions and nominations from six local party branches I am grateful for the support shown by local members, and I look forward to working together to win our seat back for Labour.
