Anyone remember if we discussed Luke Akehurst? First time ever a DU search produced "some results may have been removed [View all]

under data protection law in Europe. " He's a Labour activist and now candidate, on the right of the party.

There's a Guardian article about him: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/may/31/luke-akehurst-labour-activist-turned-controversial-election-candidate

and I thought "I've seen the name - was it on DU?" So I searched, and this is the first time I've ever seen a DU search return no results, but including the non-helpful "Some results may have been removed under data protection law in Europe. Learn more" (spoiler: you never learn more by clicking on it).

My memory of the conversation, whether here or elsewhere, was that he's an annoying t**t. Guess if he has got Google to remove results about him, I'll just have to go on assuming that.
