Delete Stephen Lloyd

Lloyd only announced he would stand for Lib Dems in 2019 GE, but it does not imply that he was a Lib Dem MP upon dissolution. I reckon we should follow parliament.uk because this article is about Lib Dem MPs in the 57th UK Parliament rather than MPs with Lib Dem party membership.

This list is not those who were Lib Dem MPs upon dissolution, but at any time in the 57th UK Parliament. Lloyd was clearly a Lib Dem MP until Dec 2018, so deletion is incorrect. Whether or not he re-took the whip on 29 October 2019 as reported, or just re-applied then and had it formally restored after dissolution, is irrelevant to his presence in this list.
