The Tories have been putting round a leaflet which is mainly a tribute to the former MP. He does seem to have been a genuinely liked and able MP.

Hartley ran in Greenwich & Woolwich in 2015 and Eltham in 2017. Wouldn't surprise me if he gets the nomination. |

Would going for a councillor from outside the borough harm the Tories?

Why do you think the Lib Dems won't come second? Because not one single person with more than a primary school level of understanding if politics does And playground insults aren't usually a sign your confident of your views |

What's this about CCHQ only having considered people who expressed an interview prior to the funeral?

The Times this morning reported that CCHQ were overwhelmed with applications so they retrospectively backdated the closing date. Yeah I've seen it now, someone at work mentioned it. I know I'm not one to shy away from discussion before the body is cold but I feel a bit like maybe it should be in the ground before applications open. |

Retrospectively changing a closing date is asking to be taken to court.. |

If an elector there I would most certainly vote for him. I am dissatisfied with BlueLabour and think they need a shock to show the marked dissent in the ranks. I don't like the entitlement of the big parties in this sentimental stitch-up and feel the incumbent party deserves a bloody nose. The Conservatives will win. |

Richard Tice will be standing for RefUK. This does absolutely nothing to change the prognosis or the likely result, but lots of journalists will be along in a minute to tell us it does |

This does absolutely nothing to change the prognosis or the likely result, but lots of journalists will be along in a minute to tell us it does Though it is interesting as a test for the Reform Party. They won't win, but if they came second (and perhaps won 20% of the vote), it would prove they had the potential to disrupt politics and perhaps even win seats at the next general election. If, on the other hand, they lose their deposit, it probably means they're a busted flush. Furthermore, this seems like the sort of constituency where Richard Tice would go down very well personally. In Hartlepool, where he stood in 2019, he would have been seen as too southern, too affluent, too soft spoken - whereas here that may work in his favour. |
