Aziz Daji will contest the Batley East seat at the local elections in May.

"The people of Batley are crying out for change. The Labour Party has taken the vote of working people for granted for too long.
"This year, candidates from the Workers Party will offer an alternative.
"I am pleased to announce Aziz Daji as our candidate for Batley East.”
