CAMPAIGN headquarters for Labour’s candidate in the up-coming Middlesbrough by-election were opened yesterday (Wednesday, November 7).

The Labour Party’s General Secretary Iain McNicol visited the town to officially open the campaign office of candidate Andy McDonald.

The office, based on Linthorpe Road in the town centre, has been designed to be fully accessible to the public.

Mr McDonald said: “This is a signal of intent. I’m basing my campaign office right here in the town centre. It’s in a great location, accessible to local people."
