General election latest – 14 candidates stand for the three seats in Brighton and Hove

Here is the full list of candidates for the local elections next month when all 54 seats on Brighton and Hove City Council are being contested.

Click here for an interactive map showing who is standing in your ward and their answers to a range of questions posed by local democracy reporter Sarah Booker-Lewis and members of the public.

The elections are due to take place on Thursday 2 May with the count taking place at the Brighton Centre on Friday 3 May.

There will be 32 sitting candidates seeking re-election while 21 are standing down or have been deselected and there is one vacant seat.

The Conservatives, Greens and Labour are all fielding a full slate in each of the 21 wards while the Liberal Democrats are putting up 26 candidates.

The UK Independence Party (UKIP) is contesting 11 seats in 10 wards and the Women’s Equality Party is fielding two candidates.

There are a smattering of independents including Bridget Fishleigh in Rottingdean Coastal ward, Adrian Hart in Queen’s Park, Gerald O’Brien in St Peter’s and North Laine, David Trangmar in East Brighton and, in Hangleton and Knoll, Henrietta Izso and Stuart Bower.

In total 207 candidates’ nomination papers were accepted by the 4pm deadline earlier today (Wednesday 3 April), an average of almost 10 in each ward or the equivalent of almost four for each seat.

    You haven’t listed your UKIP candidates. Blatant bigotry

      Maggie, this list does now include the 11 UKIP candidates but we were waiting to hear from the party who they were fielding. This took a little longer than I had hoped. Sorry about that.

      two Years ago I sent Caroline Lucas 2emails asking for her assistance in a crime that was being ignored by Brighton police , no surprise there as it would have meant leaving their nice air conditioned office but the crime was serious but Caroline Lucas who is boasting of putting more police on the streets, totally ignored my emails, not even a response so how she can keep a straight face whilst being so concerned about crime makes me sick, she couldn’t care less about crime and I still have the emails to prove it.

    If we don’t get the candidate we want can we have another vote so we can? If it’s good enough for the rest of the UK it must be ok for this sleepy backwater?

    LibLabCon are quite rightly going to be hammered. They should not even bother getting out of bed.
