Oh, OK..I'd missed that; last I'd heard they were 'thinking' of standing aside...these things move quick.

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?

Going against form then, as he couldn't recall any of his own nakedly corrupt activities.

Time for another classic Lib Dem 'can't win here' type flyer methinks.

One on one? You're crazy.
Is he woke & unwoke at the same time ? Which would appeal to all sides and make him a shoe - in .

IDK, if they start dishing out £50 notes it might get em a few votes

Only hope for defeating the tories would probably be an independent candidate backed by all the non-tory parties. Which would be amusing but won't happen.

It's the Neil Hamilton/Martin Bell thing, isn't it?
Different age.

The vermin will have granny-farmed their core onto PV; whatever the weather they'll vote blue.

Its trying to invoke that. But that happened coz Hamilton stood, PAterson at least isn't (so thats a bit of an improvement.) Is a bit unfair on whoever tories put up (unless its Jeffery Archer) they haven't really had a chance to be sleasy (yet)

'Betrayed and abused': Labour's previous North Shropshire candidate not shortlisted for by-election
An experienced Labour politician spoke of his "anger and revulsion" after being barred from running for the party in the North Shropshire by-election, suggesting it was partly because of his support for Jeremy Corbyn.

Perhaps they're getting rattled by the yellow tories going on about how he's been parachuted in from Birmingham etc.
Gotta say that their first attempts at claiming contact with the constituency look a bit lame, even ny tory standards:
Basically, "he has been in the constituency before"

strictly off the record
After the Labour candidate for the last three General Elections in North Shropshire was rudely shunted aside (for being far too keen on Palestinians), check out his super soaraway replacement, Ben Wood, whose sole qualification for the role appears to be that he interned for Neil Coyle (yes, that Neil Coyle!) and does not appear to have ever had a job, but has been parachuted-in straight from doing a post-grad at Kings. He's 26, but ambulance stations and wheelchair ramps appear to loom large in his personal vision, so I'm not expecting to hear much about climate change, generation rent or the Covid-catastrophe. Also, he appears to have no twitter feed before July 2019 even though he joined in 2010. Strange!
Can he come second, or will he be eclipsed by the Liberal Democrats and consigned to the dreaded Blairite dustbin?

Lib Dem has put up a Chartered Accountant, Tories a Barrister with medical experience. If people are serious about wanting MP's that do nothing but MP he's probably the candidate you are looking for. Sounds dreadful to me,

I’d imagine some in the CLP might?
