Article is neutrally written and cites sources. The prose is a bit staccato ("He was X. He did Y. He did Z."), but with the material available that was probably unavoidable, so it's no criticism of the creator. The hook fact is neutral and properly formatted. It is interesting (in the UK and Ireland, politicians who lose their seats usually try again one or two times, but 5 is exceptional), and sources are cited. I have been unable verify any of the references (the Google books are in snippet mode and my browser didn't like the big PDFs for election results), but am happy to AGF. So it's good to go. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 22:58, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
