Farce, Scrutiny and the Commentariat – join the debate. It will not be televised again. Chorley witnesses its most important by-election at a turbulent time in the UK's political landscape. After the resignation of Labour MP Carl Ritter, four candidates are going head to head for the seat. Ritter's resignation leaves Labour with 325 seats. Should Labour's Steve Ollenshaw fail to win, then Labour will lose its majority. Four candidates. Three parties. One independent. Sadly, we won't be joined by the Conservative and Unionists in this debate, because the party's dead.
