Tories Three candidates backed other parties in past

Two are former candidates for the Brexit party, now standing in seats previously held by the Conservatives: one in Ashfield, against the Reform defector Lee Anderson, and one in North West Leicestershire, where the former Tory MP Andrew Bridgen was suspended from the party.

The third candidate is standing in Pontefract, Castleford and Knottingley, which was held at the last election by Labour's Yvette Cooper.
