Livingstone candidates announced

The candidates contesting the Scottish seat of Livingston at the by-election later this month have been announced.


Former Labour foreign secretary Robin Cook held the seat for 22 years until his early death last month prompted the calling of a by-election on September 29th.

His former election agent and friend, Jim Devine, will defend Labour's 13,000 majority in the first such poll since the general election in May.

"No one wanted to be fighting this by election, least of all me. We would all rather that Robin was still here to represent the people of West Lothian as well as he did for two decades," Mr Devine said.

The Scottish National party, who came second at the last election with 21.5 per cent of the vote, are again fielding local councillor Angela Constance.

Charles Dundas, deputy leader Sir Menzies Campbell's agent, has been reselected to stand for the Scottish Liberal Democrats, who last time took 15.5 per cent of the vote.

And last night the Scottish Conservatives, who got just over ten per cent of the vote in May, announced West Lothian advocate Gordon Lindhurst would be standing as their candidate.

The Scottish Greens have selected David Robertson for what will be the first time they have stood in Livingston in a Westminster election.

Former army officer Peter Adams will represent the UK Independence party, while the Scottish Socialist party has chosen Steven Nimmo as their candidate.

WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT

2005 ELECTION LEAFLETS

DON’T BIN THEM – ARCHIVE THEM

The 2005 General Election will become part of the rich political history of Britain. We would like to preserve this history for the benefit of present and future generations of students.

In conjunction with the By-elections website we are aiming to create a digital archive of the leaflets, posters, postcards & newsletters produced by the candidates and political parties contesting the 2005 General Election.

The purpose of this digital archive is to significantly improve the accessibility and usability of such materials for students and researchers of political and governmental science, the general public and political anoraks like us.

The success of this project depends on the co-operation of the individual candidates, political parties and voters in these elections.

You can help by collecting any election leaflets etc. that are distributed by all the candidates in your constituency over the next few weeks.

Send them to us at the address below and we will then add them to our new website, in the style of the the By-elections website.

With your help we can preserve the leaflets of the 2005 General Election for the benefit of present and future generations of students.

We have set up a post office box address for all leaflet donations to be sent.

Please post to:

PLEASE HELP US MAKE THIS PROJECT A SUCCESS

IT CAN ONLY SUCCEED WITH YOUR HELP

MORE LEAFLETS WANTED

A big thank you to all those who have sent in election leaflets.

We still need lots more to make the most of the new archive website that we are now working on.

So if you have any leaflets, please send them to us and help make this project a big success.

We will not be adding any more leaflets to this blog. Details of the new archive website will be posted here so keep watching.
