The Brexit Party has released the names of 50 MP candidates as it gears up for an early general election.

The first names are part of a wave of announcements, with the party planning to reveal candidates for all 650 seats across the UK.

Boris Johnson’s House of Commons majority was reduced to just one with the victory of Lib Democrat Jane Dodds in the Brecon and Radnorshire by-election.

Another 100 candidate names are expected to be released next week.

Leader Nigel Farage said: “With Boris Johnson already watering down Brexit, and looking to bounce the country into an early general election, trust is now the key issue in British politics.

“Our great candidates will not stand for Mrs May’s Treaty being repackaged, it is still the worst deal in history and a betrayal of leave voters.

“That’s why we are ready to fight in every seat to secure the Brexit that 17.4m voted for.”

Mr Farage tweeted that Mr Johnson’s Conservative Government faced “annihilation” if it failed on its promise to deliver Brexit by Halloween.

He wrote: “Today The Brexit Party launches 50 new parliamentary candidates across the country. If the Tories don’t deliver Brexit by October 31, they will be annihilated.”

The party’s Heywood and Middleton candidate, Colin William Lambert, said: “I left the Labour Party after nearly 40 as it is simply not the party I joined. They have let down our city and people by ignoring the democratic decision to leave the EU.
