Talk:William James (Carlisle MP)

Inclusion in Category:Whig (British political party) MPs for English constituencies
I am not sure that this article should be in Category:Whig (British political party) MPs for English constituencies as it currently is. The article never once calls William James a Whig or mentions him using that label. The opening of the article states he was an "an English Radical politician" and the articles for the Carlisle constituency and the East Cumberland consultancy also class him as a Radical rather than a Whig. Although the notion of political party was much looser during James' time in politics and there is often debate on whether someone was a Radical, a Whig or both (or something else entirely) I think that without anything in the article to show that he ever described himself as a Whig, or was described by others as such, then the article should not be in any Whig category.
