You are assuming he joined them? (Not unknown for parties to nominate candidates who haven't bothered with such trifles.) it’s hardly the point. Why would any party want to be associated with such a clearly unreliable person? Because the party he was joining at the time didn’t necessarily know that he had been a member of lots of previous parties or Because the party he was joining didn’t care or Because the party (and probably he as well) thought that each one was a settled final decision and that he had finally seen the light

Are there any other people who have been members of both the Continuity Liberal Party and the Continuing Continuing SDP? Don't they understand those parties' raison d'etres?

Anita Halpin is on the CPGB's London Assembly list-now there is a name from the past (she is the widow of Kevin Halpin). Who is Gabe Romualdo? He appears to be Leader of 'The Youth Party': uk.linkedin.com/in/gaberomualdo

Well the Continuity Liberal Party couldn't stand David Owen, and the Continuity SDP worshipped David Owen. hmm the current SDP has no more in common with the continuity SDP than it does the Lib Dems it is not only Eurosceptic, but over run with conspiracy theorists, including many anti -vaxers The continuity SDP brand is effectively deceased.

IIRC the main reasons given for Fox's mayoral nomination being rejected are down to problems with up to five voter signatures.
Signatures aren't needed for the list. Maybe his agents neglected to get a certificate of authorisation sorted hence he wound up with no description.

What are the likely list repercussions if the Tories lose constituency seats as expected?

If the Lib Dems get over the line and win the South West seat it will probably have an effect on how many seats they win on the Londonwide list?
How many votes approx would Fox need to get elected as a list member? Given he has a significant following online could he come close if he marshalls his supporters effectively? Highly unlikely I assume.

Highly unlikely I assume. Is there any significant difference between having 2 on the list and 1 list and one seat? Perhaps voters may identify more with an elected seat representative than someone on a list?
