Great to have @andyburnham.bsky.social out today giving his full backing to our brilliant candidate Angeliki Stogia for Gorton and Denton.

Andy was clear - we are united against the division of Reform. He wants people to vote Labour to keep them out of Manchester.

Goodwin once argued against Robinson’s politics on live TV. He once warned about far-right politics. Now Reform insist Robinson β€œisn’t welcome” in the party, but Goodwin won’t reject the endorsement.

Tommy Robinson is backing Reform candidate Matthew Goodwin. And Goodwin won’t distance himself from the former EDL leader.

GM Mayor has massive budget/national recognition.Local MP backbencher not so much. IMAGINE GM GOES TO REFORM. That’s 100yr labour legacy in the bin.Low turnout for Mayor election may have resulted in that.

I forgot Levo.First date with now husband was in a dodgy nightclub called the Palace. Serious note finding it hard to judge this.Reform shouting loud on local Denton FB but same people and maybe some bots? Labour support declined because of WhatsApp scandal.Think a β€˜local’ rep might swing it

Why does Nigel Farage not just tell the truth?
Matt Goodwin was born and raised in St Albans.
Three years as an undergraduate in Salford doesn’t exactly make you a member of the Stone Roses.
He takes Northerners for fools.
Well, guess what? We’re not.

#GVerse Bravo #London just joined #Minnesota!

Trafalgar Square filled with protesters demanding justice for Alex Pretti while opposing Farage.

When state violence goes unchecked, the world notices.

Also it was cynical/clever for the to launch in Denton which is the least diverse area in G&D.

From a person in Denton thank you for this message. I’m already concerned about the local tribal reaction to this by-election. I’ve read your commentary about him and will try to share the information - however it may be difficult. You can tell it’s fraught when lots of people on local FB go ANON

The people of Gorton & Denton deserve much better than an opportunist extremist using their community as a platform for his own career. HOPE not hate will be actively campaigning to make sure Matthew Goodwin does not get elected.
