Gorton and Denton by-election result:
GRN: 40.7% (+27.5)
REF: 28.7% (+14.7)
LAB: 25.4% (-25.3)
CON: 1.9% (-6.0)
LDEM: 1.8% (-2.1)
Green GAIN from Labour.
Expect weeks of "family voting" rhetoric from Reform. They're out of the gates on it already.
It mustn't be allowed to wash because look at the scale of that win.
Tactical voting has obviously played a massive part.
Gorton and Denton rejected Reform and its hateful agenda.

Good morning.
If you've just woken up, the politics of hope just crushed the politics of fear and hatred (Labour-Reform).
It wasn't even close.
40.6% for the Greens. Reform second on 28.7%, Labour third on 25.4%.
