NORTH West MEP Arlene McCarthy will not stand as a candidate in this year’s European elections, she has announced.
In a statement emailed to constituents on Friday, she said: “I am still your Labour MEP until June 2014 and will continue to campaign for Labour to win in the European elections, the general election 2015 and for Ed [Miliband] to be our next Labour prime minister.”
