The subject of this article clearly fails WP:POLITICIAN as the only claims to notability are that he was once chairman of a local constituency party and that his blog made disparaging comments about Tony Blair. Being a Prospective Parliamentary candidate is not enough. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 23:36, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect to North Norfolk (UK Parliament constituency), as the "general rule" WP:POLITICIAN requires for candidates. Nothing here to suggest the general rule should not apply.--Mkativerata (talk) 00:04, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Agree with Redirect. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 00:13, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Redirect. Only thing which covers him beyond bog-standard PPC coverage is his silly blog entry about the suicide of Tony Blair, but that's a clear WP:NOTNEWS. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 08:39, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect as per WP:POLITICIAN and is happerning to other PPC's that fail the test, no real refs so not notable. --Wintonian (talk) 22:52, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect as above. Incidentally, the "Trevor" rather than "Ivory" in the third paragraph is a dead giveaway it was written as a campaign piece... Wereon (talk) 11:13, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Trevor -> Ivory fixed that. Dloh  cierekim  15:30, 18 March 2010 (UTC)


 * As is documented in the last AfD, additional real refs were added by myself. See my last revision.   removed all mention of the main story for which he is notable.  I do agree that the event for which he is most notable is a single event. John Vandenberg (chat) 02:58, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep for now As the candidate for the party in 2nd place in 2005, he has a slim chance of election, but it should be culled as NN if he does not win at the General Election. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:23, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Then we'll need another AFD should he lose? With Redirect we get to keep our cake and eat it too. If he loses, we need do no more. If he wins, we revert the redirect and expand the article. As it sits, he clearly does not met the GNG or WP:POLITICIAN. Dloh  cierekim  18:29, 21 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Redirect per Mkativerata. I appreciate John Vandenberg's work on sourcing it, but the incident seems too trivial, and squarely within the context of his political activities, so I still consider WP:POLITICIAN controlling. Ray  Talk 18:01, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
