Put Gorton and Denton first. Also put British People first. Joint first. Except for the British people in Gorton and Denton who I don't consider to be British. They're second, as in "class". But if anybody asks, I didn't say that; I just dog-whistled it.

A vote for Labour in Gorton and Denton Is a vote for Reform Do better, Vote Green bylinetimes.com/2026/02/24/e...

Labour is literally lying to voters in Gorton and Denton RN

Voters in Gorton and Denton can take a FREE personality test today. Simply go into a polling booth and if you find yourself voting for Matt Goodwin, you'll know you're a twat.

The best of luck to Gorton and Denton today, vote Green.

It's a Green Party in Gorton and Denton Vote Hannah Spencer Vote Green 💚

Here’s what actual tactical voting websites are saying: tactical.vote/gorton-and-d... stopreformuk.vote/parl/gorton-...

This is a massive scandal. Labour has invented a made-up tactical vote organisation to trick Gorton and Denton into voting for them. How can this even be legal?

Hannah Spencer: councillor, plumber, greyhound lover and the only candidate who can beat Reform in Gorton & Denton today 💚

Having unpleasant flash-forward visions of Farage’s shit-eating grin on Friday. Do the right thing, Gorton.

Every time Labour created a modern parliament – Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, London – they chose proportional representation writes MP, Jenny Riddell Carpenter. Why is Westminster the exception? If PR is good enough for devolved Britain, it’s good enough for the UK. @eastangliabylines.co.uk

The danger is to think of Reform as just another version of the Tory Party They are so much worse They have taken the worst Tories - the most power-hungry, racist, misogynistic MPs - and empowered them to seek authoritarian rule They will decimate our rights and democracy They will rule over us!

🚨VERY IMPORTANT! ON 16 MARCH PARLIAMENT WILL DEBATE A PETITION FOR BY-ELECTIONS TO BE TRIGGERED AUTOMATICALLY WHEN MP’S DEFECT CONTACT YOUR MP NOW and ask them to attend the debate and support this petition - let’s sort this out once and for all

An important reminder

Keir Starmer, Prime Minister: "We are not the Britain of the Brexit years anymore. We must look outwards, and work with our European neighbours to keep our country safe. There is no British security without Europe, and no European security without Britain."

Poverty is not real. You should not be allowed to work from home. Minimum wage is a bad idea. Women need to stay at home and have kids. Migrant workers are the problem. I don’t know guys. It seems like Reform might not represent the working class at all?

You want to opt out of Palantir abusing your health data, right? Sign the petition and share, please!

15 years ago today I arrived on Downing Street in a cage. I've seen off Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak and I'm still going strong. Only two Prime Ministers have ever done longer stints here: William Pitt the Younger and Sir Robert Walpole. Bill and Bob - I'm coming for you... (Photos AP)

Unbelievably this wasn’t even raised on SkyNews just now during the interview with Reform's head of policy Zia Yusuf. If UK news shows won’t call this boll**** out let’s do it ourselves

So lovely to meet you Andrew and hear about your priorities for your MP Lots of normally-support-Labour voters just as fearful of a Reform win as you. So pleased to be able to listen to them and show them that a Green vote will be positive for their area and keep out Farage and the far right.

Hannah Spencer (Green): I really get why the Greens picked Hannah. She is incredibly charismatic and comes across as very authentic. Her background as a plumber not only gives a sense of authenticity but she also cleverly deploys it to back up points about the issues she cares about.

Do you think the same org that handles military data, and handed over personal data to ICE in the US, should have your health data? Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

This is my home. I have friends who work in the paper mill that’s suspected of being the cause of forever chemicals in our local river… that I sometimes swim in. And we risk falling behind EU nations in setting limits on these chemicals in our water and soil. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

You just couldn’t make it up www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

@teamlabouruk.bsky.social need to wake up to the fact that #Palantir is a threat to democracy (they don’t even try to hide it!) seriously disappointed to see that @tomwatsonofficial.bsky.social is linked to Palantir, I used to think he had principles. Not any more! bylinetimes.com/2025/04/25/p...

Belch of beery breath incarnate Nige Fartrage tells the Telegraph he would slash beer duty by 10%, cutting the price of a pint in pubs by 5p – funded by reintroducing the two-child benefit cap. He knows Deform UK supporters would swap child poverty for a cheaper piss-up in a heartbeat.

Labour took votes for granted. They've blown it. Green Party want to lower bills, protect our NHS and rebuild our public services. Vote Green - and stop Reform. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I ardently hope that now after what’s happened with Mandelson that the left vote coalesces behind Greens. 80% of Labour members want PR but Starmer has steadfastly refused to listen. If Reform get this seat he will bear considerable responsibility. Matt Goodwin is too awful to contemplate.

For the maths nerds like me, this February will never happen again in our lifetime. It only happens once every 823 years 4 Sundays 4 Mondays 4 Tuesdays 4 Wednesdays 4 Thursdays 4 Fridays 4 Saturdays A perfect month. (Edited 21:53 via @skeetsapp.com)

Peter Mandelson embroiled in scandal on Groundhog Day. Apt.

BREAKING: Met Police is reviewing reports about Peter Mandelson’s emails to Jeffrey Epstein to see if they meet threshold for investigation. Spox: “The Met has received a number of reports relating to alleged misconduct in a public office”

This is Reform. They do NOT care about services for the people.

JPMorgan should ‘threaten’ UK over banker tax, Mandelson told Epstein. Mandelson was Business Secretary at that time in 2009. After leaving govt in 2010, Mandelson set up an advisory firm called Global Counsel, JPMorgan was a client. Must be investigated. archive.is/rzjnQ

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Depressing but no doubt accurate reportage from Gorton and Denton. The Starmerite adherence to Treasury economics underlies their inability to offer hope. Mandelson’s gone but his corruption of Labour continues. The filthy rich remain the dominant force.

How was this appalling man allowed to remain relevant for so long? And your occasional reminder that it's almost impossible to remove a peer.

New insights reveal how audiences feel about climate content in arts and culture. Across society, people want and expect climate change to be talked about in what they watch, visit and enjoy - but it must be done well, recent surveys have found.

I’m told it’s world wetlands day. Here’s a watercolour sketch I feel good about. #AutisticArt.

This is a pioneering new wetland restoration project on the Oxfordshire-Wiltshire border at Coleshill. It was designed to bring clean-water habitats back to the River Cole floodplain and create a much-needed wildlife corridor where 90% of freshwater habitats have been lost over the last century.

A for autism and A for Andrew. Start of a life story project I’m taking part in at my therapy group. #AutisticArt

Kelsey Dacey, 37, who is definitely not a phone addict, just has a hyperfixation on the lovely glowy supercomputer full of instant dopamine hits.

Police discovered a vast graveyard of remnants of bygone special interests in the residence of Ffiona Maw, 40, with the accused allegedly having kept trophies from over 200 victims.

Oh, and 4. Despite the demand for proportional representation from Labour members, Starmer won't change our ridiculous First Past the Post system. So he's in no position to blame anyone for "splitting the vote". share.google/buxD1tZ5BfKk...

Greens might get the chance to work with other political groupings if they made proportional representation their first demand. Otherwise (I hope I’m wrong) I think Greens just stay a pressure group. PR would split Labour and create the opportunity for a socialist/Green alliance.

Zack Polanski, "If I was working with other politicians I'd want some obvious demands" "A wealth tax on multimillionaires and billionaires" "Proper action on the climate crisis" "Proportional Representation where people's votes actually count"

Why isn't this a major news story?

London continues to lead. Last week we were ⤵️ Recognised as one of the greenest global cities with spectacular green spaces and cleaner air. Named the ‘new Hollywood’ - attracting record investment. Ignore the haters: London is the greatest city.

Labour have sunk in the polls & no longer have enough support to beat Reform in the Gorton & Denton by-election or across the country. The Greens support continues rising, with people switching from Labour especially. Voting Labour in Gorton & Denton will let Reform in.

She seems fine. I’m glad Labour is fighting this from something closer to the Greens than Reform. She’s still a Labour candidate. People still have lost their trust in Labour. I can’t see why anyone should choose this candidate in Gorton over Hannah Spencer 💚

Left - Green candidate 💚 Hannah Spencer, working class plumber and greater Manchester through and through. (Far) Right - Reform UK candidate 🟣 Racist anti-academic from St Albans. Your choice Gorton & Denton
