9/ #SocialDemocraticParty (#SDP): Crosby by-election, 26 November 1981
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1981_Crosby_by-election
Shirley Williams was the first MP to be elected to the Commons as an SDP candidate. More than 20 sitting Labour MPs & one Conservative had defected to the SDP, but Williams was the first elected in SDP colours.
Williams was defeated in 1983, after unfavourable boundary changes. She never returned to the Commons.
The SDP merged with the Liberals in 1988, only 7 years after the SDP's creation.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz says he's staying “cool” against critical personal comments made by Elon Musk but finds it worrying that Musk makes the effort to get involved in Germany's general election by endorsing the far-right Alternative for Germany party. Scholz was reacting after Musk called the chancellor a “fool” after his coalition government collapsed in November and later backed the AfD in an opinion piece he wrote for a major newspaper in Germany. Scholz, head of the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), said in comments published Saturday by the German magazine Stern that there is “nothing new” in criticism by “rich media entrepreneurs who do not appreciate social democratic politics."
