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.
Every word of this.
A hundred times — this.
MAGA “clerics” puts it very nicely.
Knowingly going along with a Zionist Israel that made nuclear bombs in breach of international law.
US says they’ve no evidence of this …
Absolutely ace cover!

Uk lawyers for Israel’s Natasha Hausdorff is suing Piers Morgan.
The @ipso.co.uk ruling of Telegraph’s preposterous “We earn £345k but soaring private school fees mean we can’t go on five holidays”, reveals the article to have been a fabrication. There is no such family as Al, Alexandra, Ali, Harry and Barry Moy. Glad to have acted as lead complainant on this.
We have madness across the pond.
Why can’t we have Hugh Grant as PM telling the US president to “fuck off”?
His grandfather was a draft dodger in WW1 … went to US to avoid serving in the army.
There ought to be a scale which would flag up these derisory sums.

EXCLUSIVE — Nigel Farage — Multi-Millionaire
As Nigel Farage licks his wounds after the defeat in the Manchester by-election, he can console himself with new figures which show that he's now worth more than £3m

Manchester Green Party graphic on a green background with hannah spencer. it’s a green win! the gorton and denton residents chose hope, not hate. here’s to change. thank you very much to all of our volunteers that helped elect hannah, our 5th Green MP and 1st in the north!
✅ Hope HAS WON!
💪 Only the GREENS can take on Farage
🇬🇧 Politics has changed forever
🪠 Hannah the Plumber is now Hannah Spencer the MP for Gorton and Denton!
🐝 The FIRST NORTHERN GREEN MP
🥀 Labour have been replaced
🚫 Reform's rise has been halted. Hate has been defeated.
Woman. Plumber. Plasterer. Local. Unifier. Quite something.
Trump style.
Note the insistence that Goodwin, who was absolutely rejected by voters in Gorton and Denton tonight, was a "great candidate"
This is really shocking and profoundly disturbing.
We are on the foothills of fascism …
Just two days to go!
Vote Hannah Spencer on Thursday and make hope normal again.
💚
THE HOUSE OF FARAGE
Is Nigel Farage telling the truth about the house in Clacton his girlfriend bought?
There’s a way for him to prove he isn’t lying.
But he refuses to take it.
We’ve launched a petition to force him to do so …

Reform are always obsessively challenging others to debates.
But my invitation to debate Nigel Farage - leader to leader - still hasn’t been taken up.
What are they running from?
The Green Party will stop Reform.

So Matthew Goodwin is Reform's candidate for the Gorton and Denton by-election. I wrote this last year about how there is nothing he won’t say if he thinks it will get him more views and paying Substack subscribers. He’s an opportunist extremist. hopenothate.org.uk/state-of-hat...
These people have no moral compass.
What offends me about this is just that it's so fucking stupid. Every time some group brutalizes another, the brutalizers conclude the people they're brutalizing are inhuman savages. It's happened 100,000 times before in history. Congrats to Brianna on being 100,001st, what an achievement.

Someone should remind Maguire (and other commentators) that people voted Labour because they wanted a ‘soft left’ government and gave Starmer a huge majority.
Hey, Sunday Times, rich people don’t ’give’ tax, like a gift to the poor. That’s not how it works.
Member Paddy's new book now out!
Report to Ofcom … useless but keeps the pressure on the British Buggered Corporation.
