Yeah, Ibiza, Aiya Napa, etc. Are places where young people go to get ludicrously smashed and contract STDs.

Most university students I know (including me) like to book their piss up and get STD holidays in early September. The reasons: it costs less as it's outside of the summer holidays (most students are poor as fuck), fewer screaming kids as it's outside summer holidays, still pretty hot, and since some of the bars haven't realised this trend they're dialing down a bit so drinks offers get stupid in order to lure more people in.
Europe is a faff for sun holidays outside of the summer months. My family has a tradition of going away in Europe in april, but if you want it hot you're pretty limited in Europe to the canaries and Turkey, Greece if they're having a decent year.

I can't link to this because it's come to me directly through personal channels, but I've been told to 'expect an announcement in the next few days'.
I also have no idea how this will work; but there is of course precedent. The LibDems already give Caroline Lucas a free run in Brighton, and both PC and the Greens gave the LibDems a free run in the Brecon by-election.
It will be interesting to see what happens in Ceredigion, a rare LibDem - Plaid Cymru marginal where PC's Ben Lake defeated the LibDems' Mark Williams by only 104 votes in 2017, where both Lake and Williams are planning to run against each other again, and where you have to go back to 1970 to find a winning candidate who wasn't from either PC or the Liberals/LibDems. Indeed, the two Labour victories in '66 and '70 were the only times since the Liberal Party took the seat in the 1880 general election that the seat was won by either Labour or Conservatives. Given that there's no risk of either Labour or the Tories winning the seat, I imagine that one will still be contested.

I had concerns about the impact of a victory parade in London in the middle of an election campaign; both on the broader result and on the result in Scotland.
