Reform fury as someone else wins by Our By-election Editor Tim Shipsink The losing candidate in the Gorton and Denton by-election, Matt Goodwhinge, has demanded an immediate re-run of the election on the grounds that he lost comprehensively to someone else. "It's totally unfair and rigged," said Goodwhinge. "I shouldn't be required to sit there and suck it up, just because I lost." Mr Goodwhine continued, *I can't believe that all those voters I demonised failed to back me. Especially after I was endorsed by Tommy Robinson and ten million Russian bots on X. "We have clear evidence of family voting, where people voted in order for me to stop deporting their families." Mr Badloser concluded. "I'm the victim of colour prejudice. They didn't vote for me simply because I'm not green." Reform leader Mr Farage, speaking from a sun lounger on a rock near the Chagos Islands said, "It's a tragedy that the people of Manchester won't see Matt in Westminster, but my constituents don't see me in Clacton either."

Beautiful from Private Eye on the massive toddler-tantrum that Matt Goodwin and Reform are having, because they got whooped in Gorton and Denton.

Gillian Mackay joins Palestine protestors outside Parliament.
It has been 6 months since the Scottish Government backed Greens calls for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israel.
Today I stood with campaign groups outside Parliament demanding action.
Companies profiting from genocide against Palestinians should not be allowed to profit in Scotland.
The Scottish Greens co-leaders will address an independence rally alongside the First Minister five weeks before the Scottish Parliament elections 👀

Every poll like this is a sign of what's possible.
But making it a reality will depend on Green supporters everywhere joining the campaign and getting active.

A torn-paper effect separates this from the bottom half, which features a green-tinted photograph of Scottish Green supporters. Overlaid in large, white, capital letters is the message: "HELP US FIGHT BACK BY SUPPORTING OUR CROWDFUNDER." The poster includes a QR code, the URL "edinburgh.greens.scot/fund-2026," and the Edinburgh Greens logo in the bottom right corner.
Reform’s billionaire backers want to fill Holyrood with MSPs that will do their bidding.
@scottishgreens.org are different.
Our MSPs are not for sale. We don’t have billionaires or oil and gas barons writing our policies. Our donations come from ordinary people like you.
Joani Reid MP @JoaniReid Proud to meet four heroes in Parliament today. Sandie Peggie, the Darlington Nurses and Jennifer Melle. They have shown tremendous courage and bravery in challenging a warped ideology and a culture of virtue signalling that rewards institutional cowardice. Thankfully, the tide is
Joani Reid MP @JoaniReid Our Home Affairs Select Committee report on the Maccabi Tel Aviv fan ban has been published. An extraordinary and unjustified decision that exposed serious failures within West Midlands Police.
Joani Reid MP @JoaniReid My column in the Herald on Sunday: the Scottish grooming gangs inquiry is welcome. We must also confront how our third sector has become institutionally corrupted to the point where it sides with SNP ministers instead of standing with women and girls
Joani Reid MP @JoaniReid Follow The SNP are taking the biscuit. They chose to turn Glasgow into sanctuary for asylum seekers through their own virtue-signalling policies, and now they want the Home Office to bail them out.
for anyone wondering why there’s so much unbridled joy on ScotPol Bluesky about the arrest of a Scottish Labour MP’s husband for spying for China, take your pick

Another great poll for the Greens! This time we're pulling ahead of Reform. And the fieldwork for this was done before the Gorton & Denton by-election win.
It's clear that more and more people understand that a Green vote will defeat the far right.
Another new poll. Scottish Greens on course for best ever result. 2021: 8 MSPs. Today's poll: 16 MSPs. On May 7th vote Scottish Greens.
🚨 NEW POLL!
Poll after poll has the Green vote surging ahead of May's Scottish Parliament election.
Together we can build a fairer, greener, independent Scotland.

Dear Prime Minister, In recent days we have seen a deeply concerning escalation in conflict in the Middle East following a series of illegal and dangerously irresponsible airstrikes on Iran by the United States and Israel. You have now confirmed that UK bases will be used by the US for their operations in the area. This is a significant concession to President Donald Trump and one which risks drawing the UK into a dangerous conflict. During your campaign to be elected leader of the Labour Party, you spoke compellingly about learning the lessons of the Iraq war. In particular, you set out legislation you would pass as Prime Minister, ensuring that military action is only taken if: • The lawful case for it is made • There is a viable objective • Consent is given by the House of Commons. We agree that such legislation is needed to prevent the UK from being dragged into destructive, illegal and dangerous wars abroad, and so we have today tabled the Armed Conflict (Requirements) Bill. The Bill requires that 1. Before armed forces may be deployed for armed conflict, a Minister of the Crown must publish a statement setting out the reasons for the deployment, an assessment of its compliance with international law, the objective of the deployment and an assessment of the viability of that objective, and 2. Any such deployment must be approved in advance by a resolution of the House of Commons
I invite your support to pass this bill. In an increasingly unstable world, it is more important than ever that decisions about the UK’s involvement in military action abroad are taken carefully, soberly, and with the best interests of the British people at heart. We believe this piece of legislation would ensure that. Yours sincerely, Dr Ellie Chowns MP
Today I tabled a bill which would require any UK military intervention to have a lawful basis, viable objective, and approval by MPs - legislation the PM once said he himself would pass when he was running for Labour leader.
He supported it then, and he should support it now.

An incredible retraction by the Daily Telegraph today. They have apologised for publishing an article last year headlined: “We earn £345k, but soaring private school fees mean we can’t afford to go on five holidays.” The entire story was fabricated; the family did not exist.

The choice is stark. Reform are the party of foreign wars and high bills.
The Greens want de-escalation and energy security through renewables. Solar and wind prices don't fluctuate when rogue US presidents launch illegal bombing campaigns.
🚨 NEW: Yougov poll this morning has the Greens surging into second place and Labour falling to fourth.

Yet another reminder of how vulnerable our reliance on fossil fuel makes us, and how absurd it is that the UK artificially links the retail price of cheap, clean renewables to expensive, dirty gas.

Gas prices up by around 50% today.
A painful reminder that relying on imported fossil fuels is a risky strategy.
The blatant Islamophobia that Keir Starmer is demonstrating through smearing Mothin Ali would be shocking - but it's becoming a pattern.
Smearing a caring man of principle for standing up for peace.
I see some people asking whether Scotland can act, because aviation & defence are reserved.
Yes, but I'm talking specifically about infrastructure owned by the Scottish Government.
They are not MOD assets; they operate commercially, and we simply don't need to accept Trump's forces as customers.
A slight improvement on yesterday's statement. But it still says nothing about the routine use of Scottish Government owned infrastructure, like Prestwick airport, by US forces.
We cannot stand up for international law while still putting our infrastructure at the disposal of those who ignore it.
In shocking news Matt blames muslims for his defeat and would like you to pay him money so that he can keep pointing this out.
