What’s in the nomination papers for the Liberal Democrat and Labour candidates in Oxton and the nomination papers for the Labour and Conservative candidates in Pensby and Thingwall?
Pictured above is Wirral Council’s Returning Officer Eric Robinson. The Returning Officer does have the legal power to determine a nomination paper is invalid (which has the effect of disqualifying a candidate) if either:
(a) the particulars of the candidate or the persons subscribing the paper are not as required by law; or
(b) that the paper is not subscribed as so required.
Although nomination papers and candidates’ consent to nominations are open to inspection until the day before polling day, due to a legal change this year the home address forms are not open to inspection by the public.
Below are the nomination papers and candidate’s consent to nomination for the Liberal Democrat and Labour candidates in Oxton ward followed by the Labour and Conservative candidates in Pensby and Thingwall ward. So first is the nomination paper and candidate’s consent to nomination for Andy Corkhill (the Liberal Democrat candidate in Oxton), second is the nomination papers and candidate’s consent to nomination for Jeff Davies (the Labour candidate in Oxton), third is the nomination papers and candidate’s consent to nomination for Phill Brightmore (the Labour Party candidate in Pensby and Thingwall) followed by the nomination papers and candidate’s consent to nomination for Mike Collins (the Conservative candidate in Pensby and Thingwall).
