I have received a response from Kate Green (the emphasis is my own):

Dear Mr Yon

Thanks for getting in touch. I’m proud to be standing as the Labour party candidate, and very proud of the many achievements of the Labour governemnt [sic] since 1997. I am committed to representing the people of Stretford and Urmston in parliament – as Bev Hughes has done. I simply don’t believe independent candidates are either as effective or as accountable to the electorate.

best wishes

Kate Green

Labour parliamentary candidate for Stretford and Urmston

I think that is the funniest thing I’ve read during all of this tragic week.

UPDATE @12:37: Alex Williams (Tory candidate) has responded simply with “Thank you for your comments.“
