Can you see what it is yet?
"Former Tory MP Christian Wakeford confirmed as Labour candidate"."Wakeford was appointed as the candidate without a trigger ballot process. Normally, an electoral college of local party branches and affiliated organisations (branches of trade unions and socialist societies) votes to decide whether an incumbent Labour MP becomes the candidate or a full selection process is undertaken.Other Labour MPs are currently undergoing the trigger ballot process. Apsana Begum and Sam Tarry, both members of the left-wing Socialist Campaign Group of MPs in parliament, have been ‘triggered’ by their local parties. Tarry lost the subsequent selection contest to Labour to Win backed Jas Athwal.""The Labour leader [Starmer] said during his campaign to become leader in 2020 that “we should end NEC impositions of candidates” and that “local party members should select their candidates for every election”.https://labourlist.org/2022/11/former-tory-mp-christian-wakeford-confirmed-as-labour-candidate/"“local party members should select their candidates for every election”Well, sort of true in this case - but this candidate was selected by local Tory Party members.
