The organisation that supposedly spotted this looks perfectly legit until you delve beneath the surface.

#Gaza has not been forgotten or forgiven,” said a #Labour councillor in the constituency. “Lots of us are now worried for our seats”. No shit 😂 !
Congratulations to the #Greens for their victory in #GortonDenton, hopefully opening a new area when basic decency, #socialjustice, no #genocide and supporting the #environment we depend on is not seen as some dangerous #leftist idea, or just impossible utopia (hear #Starmer sigh in imcomprehension as he's wheeled out).
Now the big picture. 🤷♂️
If Starmer was smart this'd be a wake-up call that he's losing his core and he could wake up after the GE to the Labour equivalent of the Tories losing Oxfordshire and most of Surrey.
So the Blue Labour, anti-immigration stuff dies. And we get PR.
But if Starmer was smart he'd have probably never tried a "chase the far right" strategy given outside Denmark (even that's arguable) it's never worked for SocDem parties.
Also I feel sorry for the Lib Dem candidate. This is old now but there was a by-election in a predecessor seat in 2017, she was the candidate then. And she was strong.
Without having been on the campaign (and high up) I can never confirm this but reportedly she was leading. Then GE2017 was called, the dynamics changed and it all unwound.
Must suck to come dead last in a seat where, a few butterflies flying differently, you could have been sitting MP.
Well done to the Greens, so far as I'm aware this is their first by-election win of this nature.
The campaign generally looked pretty Lib Demmy (down to releasing data showing you just behind your scariest opponent) so I feel vindicated in sometimes lumping the two parties together when it comes to strategies.
The Modi poster wasn't great though. Less of that please.
Second best realistic result imo from Gorton and Denton. Labour holding on slightly better so Reform was third would've been nice.
Reform actively doing badly given their awful candidate would be even better but not likely given it's a by-election and the government's managed to piss off both its natural enemies and its natural allies.
But hopefully some wind out of Reform's sails nevertheless.
Greens 40.69 per cent
Party of xenophobia 28.73 per cent
Formerly Labour 25.32 per cent
#HannahSpencer victory speech from #GortonDenton absolute class.
(Sorry it’s from youtube, other tubes are available)
Absolutely brilliant news that #HannahSpencer has won the #GortonDenton by-election for the #GreenParty
What a testament to the hard work of #gpew volunteers and a victory for hope over the divisive politics of the far right and the dead-end of #UkLabour
Bloody UK - still only just over 47% turnout. It's never, ever truly representative of the electorate. It would be so interesting to see what happens to UK politics if they brought in compulsory voting (not to mention PR....).
Bloody hell...look at those numbers:
Also deserving of some praise: tactical voting websites. #gortondenton

UK night owls, who's about to join the Greens on the grounds that they're now a serious party? #GortonDenton #byelection
Very best of luck and good wishes to Hannah and all the #Greens in #GortonDenton today.
An incredible campaign has been fought in the face of hugely well-funded ReformUK and Labour Party from this insurgent force for hope.
Keeping everything crossed for you all
When fake ‘patriots’ turn out to be russian assets. Again.
Farage's #Brexit was, of course, a HUGE economic success, so it's not surprising that voters in #Gorton & #Denton want more of the same. 🤡

Looks like the #GortonDenton byelection will be a close-run thing, which is a damning indictment of #UKLabour since it should've been a safe seat.
I do wonder how many doors have actually been knocked on by #ReformUK and how much they've just relied on their big money donors to push their ads all over social media instead. I do not think their guy will be a hardworking local MP if elected.
(I'm not prepared to go on X and have a look to satisfy my curiosity, I should add)

Matt Goodwin had said : "It takes more than a piece of paper to make somebody ‘British’", and that "migrants do not instantly adopt the host country’s ‘British’ or ‘English’ culture and identity the moment they sign a few papers.
Today, #TommyRobinson endorsed these words, but when asked, #Farage avoided the subject entirely
That is because Nigel Farage is a racist.

Matt sounds like a charmer.
He supports rolling back decades of progress on women's rights.
