Parliamentary Candidate Diversity Data

The Government has recommended that political parties publish Parliamentary candidate diversity data.

This is the second election at which we have voluntarily reported this data. 

These figures include all Parliamentary candidates in constituencies that the Conservative Party contested in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland at the 2019 General Election.
