Rogers to get SDLP Westminister ticket

The SDLP assemblywoman and Stormont Agriculture Minister, Brid Rodgers, has confirmed she's to be the party's Westminister candidate in West Tyrone.

Mrs Rodgers, who's originally from Co Donegal, has fought the Upper Bann constituency in previous general elections.

Tactical voting there by nationalists could ensure the defeat of the anti-Agreement MP, Willie Thompson.
