The SDP seem to have quite a lot of prospective candidates this time around. What's the betting that they won't stand even half of them?

Rod Liddle standing here for the SDP apparently. It's the area where he grew up and went to school.

Well, the idea of a Reform UK full slate died quickly

Well, the idea of a Reform UK full slate died quickly There was a rumour locally that Simon Clarke had “done a deal” with Reform which I hadn’t taken very seriously until now. They could have found a candidate easily had they wanted one.

Isn't this where Rod Liddle is standing for the SDP? Maybe that is who the "deal" is actually with.

Rod Liddle repeatedly told the audience at the hustings in Guisborough tonight to vote Labour. Probably not what Reform hoped for when they endorsed his candidacy…

More importantly the lack of a Reform UK candidate was not enough for Sir Simon Clarke to hold the seat although the pro-Labour swing was considerably below the national average.
