Ok - cool. I searched couldn't find any references that weren't us to this, and so assumed it was a mistake in wherever the 2001 list came from. Thanks for putting me right. Morwen 21:33, Jan 3, 2004 (UTC)

I think the list came from here - the names have been turned around, but it includes "Chapman, James Keith" and the unusual form "Cook, Rt. Hon. Robert" for Robin Cook, as does our list, and it hasn't been updated for the by-elections. --rbrwr
