BNP candidate in 2010

Although it might seem like vandalism, the BNP candidate's name actually was Tony Trebilcock, as per http://www.yournextmp.com/candidates/tony_trebilcock (86.175.33.106 (talk) 21:26, 15 November 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Thank you for your contribution - I've restored it to the article. Although some reliable sources omit the "c", the majority use the spelling you give. Warofdreams talk 00:54, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

largest drop in Liberal Democrat support since the War

I've found two sources which indicate this to be the case, and mentioned it accordingly. RodCrosby (talk) 21:51, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The first source only indicates changes in parliamentary by-elections (Table 13) so far as I can see, so I've adjusted the text accordingly. I think it's a safe assumption that no by-elections after that report have resulted in such a big drop (I would certainly recall any), so I'm happy to let this go through on that basis. I can't access the second source you give.--A bit iffy (talk) 23:16, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I thought it was taken as read I was talking about by-elections, but clarification does no harm. The appendix in the Cook and Ramsden book is a similar list to Table 13. The apparently slightly greater 'drop' in Sowerby, 1949 was an artifact of the Libs not fielding a candidate. RodCrosby (talk) 23:41, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
