Those styled in bold have already indicated their intention to attend the Spurtle hustings on 24 June.* Those styled in italics have been contacted through their party websites and have yet to respond.
We have no contact details for Caroline Waterloo. If any reader can supply them, we'd be very grateful. Alternatively, we'd be delighted to hear from her at spurtle@hotmail.co.uk.
*The Spurtle hustings will take place on 24 June, 7.30pm–9.30pm, at Broughton St Mary's Parish Church (Bellevue Crescent). Entry is free but we'd appreciate cash donations afterwards to help us cover the cost of the event. It would help us to gauge voters' priorities, and set a citizens' agenda, if you either email us questions in advance or outline those policy areas which matter most to you.
