VOTERS will be able to choose from five candidates in next month’s by-election in Radcliffe West.

Last Thursday was the deadline for nominations for the election, which takes place on Thursday, June 4, the same day as the European elections.

The candidates are: Samantha Davies, Conservatives; Mike Halsall, Liberal Democrats; Stephen Morris, English Democrats; Jean Purdy, British National Party; and Rishi Shori, Labour.

The by-election was triggered by the resignation of long-serving councillor Wayne Campbell, who has been appointed maintenance manager for Six Town Housing.

Anyone wishing to check they are registered to vote, or to request a postal vote, can contact the elections office on (0161) 253 5113
