Caroline Lucas, the MP for Brighton Pavilion, has announced that she will be standing down at the next General Election.
Brighton & Hove Liberal Democrats are looking forward to appointing their candidate to contest the seat. It will be the first time that they have fought this seat since 2015 as they stood aside at the 2017 and 2019 elections.
The Candidate selection process is being prepared and we anticipate invitations to stand will be issued during December 2023.
If you are interested in standing as the Liberal Democrat Parliamentary candidate for the Hove Constituency make sure you are a signed up member and have applied for and joined the approved candidates list.

The voters completely rejected Tory policies and government by electing Sarah Dyke as their new MP. Sarah polled 21,187 votes against the Tories 10,179, their worst result in the history of the seat. In the General Election in 2019 Tories polled 36,230 votes so this represents a loss of 26,051 votes for them. A disastrous result and a measure of just how much disatisfaction there is with the current Tory Party and its disastrous government. For Sarah though, it represents a huge personal triumph as she becomes the 15th MP sitting for the Lib Dems in this parliament. Huge congratulations to Sarah, our newest MP.
