Here’s the full list of selection contests in the coming month available for Lib Dems on the approved parliamentary candidates’ list, together with the closing date for applications. They include North West Hampshire – where, if rumours are to be believed, the Lib Dem candidate may get to take on Boris Johnson – and my home town of Horsham, so I’ll be watching that one with interest!

The following seats have selections in progress and are currently advertising for candidates:

North West Hampshire, 25th April
Bexhill and Battle, 2nd May
Windsor, 8th May
Crawley, 9th May
Horsham, 9th May
Tatton, 9th May
Richmond (Yorks), 31st May

Further information, including Returning Officer contact details, can be found on the Lib Dem members’ website: http://www.libdems.org.uk/forms/user_sessions/new and then once you have logged in by following the links: Our Party > Selection Adverts – Latest News. Note you will need to register online and login in order to access the advert webpage.
