Oxford candidate stands up for working-class communities
WORKING-CLASS communities do not need candidates parachuted in to solve their problems, the woman challenging Labour chairwoman Anneliese Dodds for election is out to prove.
Jabu Nala-Hartley, a former Labour party councillor, is contesting the Oxford East seat as an extension of her long-standing role as an advocate for her community.
