What follows is an inventory of candidates and supporters which – given the multiplicity of candidates, the obscurity of the timetable, the number of sources and the mutability of “essentially the most subtle citizens on this planet” – shall be ceaselessly up to date and amended.
We identify beneath as candidates all these identified to us who’ve both declared that they intend to face or have instructed that they might accomplish that, both immediately or not directly.
The date towards the names of supporters document once we made the entry on this weblog – not when the MP in query made an announcement.
