Interesting but need to be consistent -- some answers require "party" others do not.

Thanks for pointing that out – I've now updated the type-ins so that "party" isn't required for any of them.

What the heck is going on in NI? I knew four of them and that was still only half.

Nominated!

Very nice, nominated. Those Scottish defections in Westminster caught me off guard!

A local government version would be good too, although much more work clearly...

I'm from NI and I missed more NI parties than ones for any of the other parliaments...

"Tory" and "Tories" should be acceptable type-ins for the Conservatives.

I honestly don't know how I missed that when I did type-ins, I've added them now

You forgot the Count Binface party, everyone knows he was the real winner of the last election.
