Getting into poll position BRISTOL West has been in the spotlight throughout the general election – and in a few days’ time one of these people will be our local MP. The constituency has been held for ten years by Liberal Democrat Stephen Williams, third left, who was communities

minister in the last coalition government. But Labour and the Greens both believe they are in with a chance of taking the seat. Labour’s candidate is Thangam Debbonaire, far left, and the Green contender is Darren Hall, second right.

The other challengers are Conservative Claire Hiscott, second left, UKIP’s Paul Turner and Independent Dawn Parry, centre, and Left Unity’s Stewart Weston, right. View candidates: P.20-23.
