What the audit found
On 7 September 2026 those URLs were requested again — 1 no longer resolved, 2 redirected, 1 answered with the surname absent, 1 answered. An HTTP success means the server answered. It does not establish that the campaign page survived.
- Mike Tapp — https://miketapp.co.uk — Answered (HTTP 200).
- Ashley James Payne — https://ashpayne.uk — No longer resolved (DNS failure). An outage and a removal look the same in this check.
- Stephen James — https://www.stephenjamesgbr.co.uk — Redirected to https://stephenjamesgbr.co.uk/.
