 * Turnout was terrible considering all the attention it must have got. I wonder if the mobile phone mast stuff cost the Lib Dem (she works for a mobile phone company and it was alleged she is involved in promoting them). Secretlondon


 * being elected an MP with just 7,451 votes it quite pathetic. But i note RESPECT retained their deposit!!! Morwen - Talk 00:30, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC) (wondering when the last time four parties got more than 5% each at any English parliamentary election)


 * It will be sold as a great victory comrade ;) When are we expecting Leicester btw? Secretlondon 00:34, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC)


 * No idea. (If I'm at the computer it means I am not downstairs watching BBC News 24. :)  )  I think they estimated about 2am.  I think I should go to bed.  A minute ago.   Morwen - Talk 00:37, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC)

The fraud that was a part of this election really needs to be covered. —Christiaan 16:12, 7 May 2005 (UTC)

I don't understand why the word 'dirty' is included in the description of the Labour campaign. Surely these two examples are perfectly legitimate in elections that choose, not only a party with policies (i.e. Lib Dems being 'soft' on crime) but an individual person (i.e. a person who works in an industry that people do not like). It's not as if they campaigned on her sexuality, gender or race.

Stephen Eyre
Is Stephen Eyre, the Conservative candidate, this Stephen Eyre? This would imply he was (same DOB and education) but I can't find any other source to this effect. FieldOfWheat (talk) 10:09, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
