By Carmelo Garcia - Local Democracy Reporter

The Labour Party has selected candidates to contest both county constituencies.

Anna Coda is standing in Hereford and South Herefordshire while Joe Wood has been selected as the candidate to contest the North Herefordshire seat.

Ms Coda says voters should back her party on December 12 to repair the NHS, invest in public services and to offer hope to all those in insecure jobs and housing.

“Labour will increase funding for the NHS and protect it from privatisation and US drug companies. We will recruit more GPs and nurses and scrap hospital parking charges.
