Which is something you expect for paper candidates in Parish council elections to be honest. Let alone parliamentary candidates in a high profile seat that Labour came fairly close to winning in 2015.

Labour's candidate from 2015 would have been a much wiser choice. But Oliver Coppard is firmly on the right wing of Labour and he isn't standing for Labour anytime soon owing to Labour's anti-semitism issues.
