 * Keep Caused quite a bit of controversy at the time. If I were cynical I'd say this nomination has to be looked at in the context of an upcoming General Election :-) Francium12  00:12, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Are you refering to to WP:NPOV and WP:COI? could you clarify your concern please? --Wintonian (talk) 00:49, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep The gnews link above shows he's been the subject of more than one political controversy, having been active as a candidate numerous times. I am also unsure whether being editor of the Birmingham Post gives him separate notability from his candidacy. From the sheer volume of coverage, I think he passes the notability threshold. That said, my support is weak because this looks like a BLP without much in the way of good to say about the subject, and I don't see that changing. Ray  Talk 22:20, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep editor; author; source of political controversy - marginally notable. I think that at the time the Birmingham Post was a notable regional newspaper; now it is no longer such.  Peterkingiron (talk) 21:07, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
