Ridiculous, what a waste of money! (as they will mostly all lose their deposits).
Would have been more sensible not to stand and instead give the money to victims of child abuse from their vile obese paedo monster Cyril Smith. But oh no, their vanity won’t permit that.
Deposits are not paid by local election candidates!
