Turns out Britain doesn’t like fascists after all

EXCL:

Zack Polanski overheard speaking loudly on his phone on a train saying there's shit loads of new green party members.

And the Greens are going to win elections right across England and Wales in May.

Dear Lucy Powell,

I have enjoyed our exchange of letters about which of our parties is best placed to stop Reform.

Hannah Spencer MP and I trust that you agree that this question has now been resolved once and for all.

Thanks,
Zack Polanski

EXCL: Zack Polanski overheard on a train shouting loudly into his phone, “Hannah Spencer. No Surrender. A four-day week and a 3-day bender!”

[Carole Cadwalladr @carolecadwalla]

This is racism, pure and simple. It’s also a test. The UK press needs to describe it for exactly what it is: that Reform’s candidate made a racist and inflammatory losing statement

[Joss Sheldon @JossSheldon]

Congratulations to Matt Goodwin on his appointment as Shadow MP for Gorton and Denton.

[Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar]

"Family voting" - of which police and polling station staff saw no evidence during the vote - is totally made up horseshit intended to cast suspicion on ethnic minorities for having the temerity to exercise their democratic right.

That's it.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Good morning.

If you've just woken up, the politics of hope (@GreenPartyHan) 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%.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

I'm calling it.

The Greens have won the Gorton and Denton by-election.

Hannah Spencer will be the constituency's new MP.

[Matt Zarb-Cousin @mattzarb]

Looks like the Greens are going to win so “Democracy Volunteers” — who no one has ever heard of until today — are attempting to declare the result null and void, presumably because some Muslim families turned up to the polling stations together and said they weren’t voting Labour

[Alexander Louis Sallons @sallonsax]

Don't be a landlord then. You're an investor, the value of your investment can go down as well as up. Your investment carries risk. Go invest in a company, not housing.

Or go get a job.

[Stuart Middleton @stuartmiddleton]

@CrossCountryUK Updated the app as prompted, and none of my bookings are showing. Is this a known issue?

[Stuart Middleton @stuartmiddleton]

Disgusting. #StopTheOats

[Politi_Cal @politi_cal95]

Conservative Councillor EXPOSES “cruel” and “vile” behaviour of @TheGreenParty councillors on the Wirral! @ZackPolanski - is this really what we expect from our elected representatives? 🤔

[Alexander Louis Sallons @sallonsax]

Green Party votes to Abolish Landlords!

Let's goooooo!

[Novara Media @novaramedia]

"The Greens will never dance to the tune of a Trump-loving, tax-avoiding, science-denying, NHS dismantling, corporate stooge."

Zack Polanski took aim at both Keir Starmer's "politics of managed decline" and Nigel Farage's "politics of despair" in his speech at the Green Party's annual conference in Bournemouth.
