He needs to compose a hell of a defence. But that's not his forte. I can see him doing 7/8 time behind bars.

Haha yeah I said this yesterday, we're supposed to imagine all those terrible scary brown men making their wives and daughters vote Green, the bastards.

They need to scream about "sending our troops to war", "American war dead", "US troops sent into another mid-east war thanks to Trump." on every network and every platform, all Dems asking "How many American lives is Trump sacrificing?"

Christ that's terrible. And a shameless attempt to launder Farage's loss by associating him with a winner. Nauseating tosh, as usual from Lk.

I had no idea George Galloway had endorsed Hannah Spencer and I doubt the voters did either. Also nearly 5k majority is not just "pushed over the line".

Haha, like Andy Murray is British when he wins, and Scottish when he loses, today Labour are "progressives" just like the Greens, and the progressives won, hurrah!

Apparently they saw 32 "instances of family voting". Thirty-fucking-two. Remind me what the Green's majority was, 5000 plus?

Hannah Spencer speaks following her victory in the Gorton and Denton byelection. Photograph: Temilade Adelaja/Reuters
In an emotional victory speech, Spencer – who becomes the fifth Green party MP – said people were being β€œbled dry”.

She said: β€œInstead of working for a nice life, we’re working to line the pockets of billionaires. We’re being bled dry. And I don’t think it’s extreme or radical to think that working hard should get you a nice life”.

Spencer emphasised community solidarity and said she would call out politicians β€œwho constantly scapegoat and blame our communities for all the problems in society. My Muslim friends and neighbours are just like me – human.”

Thrilled for Hannah Spencer in the Gorton and Denton by-election. Proof (as if we needed it) that Labour's attempt to chase votes on the right has driven us lefties away. Idiots.

Stunning and historic result in the Gordon and Denton parliamentary by-election in the UK.

The anti-genocide Green Party led by Zack Polanski has won the seat from Keir Starmer's governing Labour Party.

Nigel Farage's Reform UK and its odious candidate Matt Goodwin beaten.

Restore Britain plan to "deport" more than 1 in 60 of us. Look down your own street. Imagine 2, 3 or 4 whole families gone. Expelled from the UK. Repeated across the whole country.

Rupert Lowe is insane.

Both in the US and here in the UK, all major parties have been silent for 50 years on the benefits of immigration, while quietly enacting policies that allow the 1% to exploit immigrants for cheap labour. I fucking hate it.
