    Starmer’s party also faced a challenge from another former Labour MP in the form of Simon Danczuk, who was suspended from the party in 2015 after sending inappropriate messages to a teenager. Danczuk, Rochdale’s MP from 2010 to 2017, was standing for Reform UK, the anti-immigration party founded by Nigel Farage.

    Reform had fewer votes than the Lib Dem’s, that’s barely a challenge.

    Will this seat be up for re-election during the upcoming General Election, or does it get a pass for being so recent?
