@ChrisMayLA6 I think this scenario is v unlikely.

1/ local projections of national polls make #NorwichSouth a neck-and-neck Labour/Green marginal. V risky for any Lab candidate.

2/ #AndyBurnham would be rejected by NEC as Lab candidate unless he swore loyalty to #Starmer, but that would sink Burnham.

3/ voters hate being taken for granted, and a stitchup like thus would face some local fury.

So I think this is a non-starter in that seat. But #CliveLewis is smart. What is he playing at?

UK voters in #Cheltenham, #SouthCotswolds, #NorwichSouth or #EdinburghSouthWest - your MP is one of the winners of today's Private Members Bill ballot! They've already said they support the Climate and Nature bill; why not message them now to remind them of this chance to get legislation in place that will protect the climate and restore nature - the #CANBill

Something has gone badly wrong with the U.K. Postal voting system. With 2 days to go I’m sitting in France waiting for my postal vote to arrive. I’ve been denied a vote.#election2024 #PostalVotes #Norwichsouth
