The East Midlands Labour Party says Wojciech Kowalewski is its prospective parliamentary candidate for the South Holland and The Deepings constituency in the General Election on June 8.
Matthew Mahabadi, the Labour candidate who came third in the poll for the seat in 2015, said Mr Kowalewski was an “excellent choice”.
He added: “He’s an experienced, genuine and professional man who’d make an excellent MP.”
Mr Kowalewski was the only Labour candidate in the 2015 election for South Holland District Council, polling more than 400 votes in the Moulton, Weston and Cowbit ward.
He said at the time: “It’s a very strong Conservative area, but unless we try we will never win.”
