Stephen Barclay → Steve Barclay (politician) – His personal website and his Offical Parliamentary profile, as well as most of the sources, use "Steve". Yes, it needs to be disambiguated, but opting for a less-used version of someone's name is not the preferred way to disambiguate. At present the article makes no mention of the name by which he appears to prefer to be known. As the existing redirect has no history, I could just have moved this page as "uncontroversial", but nothing connected to any politician is ever uncontroversial, so opening a discussion here instead.
