MORE political parties have said they hope to field a candidate in the upcoming Wanstead by-election.
The UK Independence Party (UKIP) have said they will stand, while Libertas UK are also strongly rumoured.
Already confirmed on the ballot are the British National Party, the Labour Party, The Liberal Democrats and the Conservative Party.
The by-election, which will be held on Thursday April 23, was called following the death of Cllr Allan Burgess.
Nick Jones, 62, has been announced as UKIP's nominee.
