  • General Election 2019
    General Election 2019 General Election candidates confirmed At the end of last week, nominations closed for the 650 constituencies to be contested in the UK General Election. Although much of the focus of the campaign will be on national messages and the party leaders, the impact of the campaign at a local level may be more important than perhaps has traditionally been the case. Brexit Party An early question in this campaign has been whether the Brexit Party would stand a full slate of candidates or only run in a limited number of places. Its decision not to stand in the 317 seats won by the Conservatives in 2017 appears to make it harder for the Lib Dems to win back in the South West now that the Conservatives can portray the contest as a straight Remain/Leave choice in a Eurosceptic part of the country. Some commentators argue that Nigel Farage’s decision to stand Brexit Party candidates in Labour held seats in the north and midlands will make it harder for the Conservatives to make the gains they need to get an overall majority. However, others suggest that their presence may actually help if they can drive down the Labour share of the vote by winning over disgruntled “Leavers” who would not countenance voting Conservative. Only time will tell which analysis is right. Remain side On the Remain side, the Liberal Democrats, Greens and Plaid Cymru have agreed to stand a single candidate in 60 seats, yet the impact of this is likely to be limited. As many of the seats have large majorities, the number of seats truly impacted by this deal is probably only in single figures.
