Election Titles (EDM42)

Election Titles

EDM number 42 in 1997-98, proposed by Norman Baker on 22/05/1997.

That this House is concerned that the wishes of the electorate are being distorted by individuals who are standing for election under misleading titles and that the current trend to describe themselves in similar terms to the established national party candidates is misleading, and therefore calls on the Home Secretary to consider devising and implementing methods to stop this at future elections.

This motion has been signed by a total of 81 MPs.
