Episode: Roifield talks to Amina Lone
Description: Amina Lone co director of Sarf is a Labour Councillor for Hulme in Manchester. Lone is a Muslim single mother of 4 and was somewhat of a Labour party pin up in the 2015 election, running for the 98% white seat of the Morecambe and Lunesdale. After narrowly losing the election she described herself as "battered and bruised" and said that Labour needed to listen to UKIP voters rather than dismissing their concerns, especially about immigration, as racist.
