WP:POLITICIAN says "''Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not '''guarantee''' notability, although such people '''can''' still be notable '''if''' they meet the primary notability criterion of "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article."''". (Emphasis added) This person is now standing for Parliament for the third time, as I understand it. I wouldn't be surprised if there is enough coverage out there to qualify on that basis alone. However, no opinion until I check. Disclosure: I asked the admin who speedy deleted this under #A7 to undelete
