South Middleton Councillor Mike Holly has been appointed as the Conservative Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the Heywood and Middleton constituency.

Councillor Holly said: "I am delighted to have been adopted as the Conservative Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the Heywood and Middleton constituency, particularly as I have lived in the constituency for so long and as I already represent one of its wards as a Councillor."
