| 2, Buckley, Greg (UKIP) | B, Sweet, enthusiastic, spent most of their time endorsing Lib Dem policies | |

| 4, Chris O'Conner (Ind) | D, Batshit insane but quite likeable anarchist | |
| 5, Kate Sweeny (Green) | E, Utterly lovely, the most sensible candidate by far, will likely come second | |
| 6, Craig Whittaker (Tory) | F, Completely clueless, ill-informed, ill-prepared, and risibly bad at public speaking |
