Rochdale by-election LIVE: George Galloway and Reform hope to crush Labour as polls close

Here is a list of all the candidates.

Bear in mind that while Afzhar Ali will be appearing on voters’ ballots as the Labour candidate, Sir Keir withdrew his support from Mr Ali after his comments about Israel came to light.

If he wins, he’ll be forced to sit in Parliament as an independent MP.

The Green Party have also been forced to disown their candidate, after previous remarks criticising Islam and Palestine came to light.

Afzhar Ali, Labour

Rev Mark Coleman, independent

Simon Danczuk, Reform UK

Iain Donaldson, LibDem

Paul Ellison, Conservative

George Galloway, Workers Party of Britain

Michael Howarth, independent

William Howarth, independent
