Gorton & Denton election

[Acorn1]

I think the whole Country will be watching this one tomorrow.

Place your bets.

[Ridgemont]

Greens to win. Reform second. Labour third. And then watch the st hit the fan.

They really won't.

Be interesting to see the turnout - was lowish at the last election, but then it was a slam dunk labour seat.

Politically inclined people will. It will point to likely outcomes in the next election bug style.

Which is far from the whole country then...

Did I say that? Learn to read.

[Acorn1]

I think all of the MSM will be covering it, so I would say yes, most of the Country.

Any predictions?

[Russet Grange]

Reform to win by the very narrowest of margins.

[Timothy Bucktu]

I think the fact that the loony tune Greens are in with a shot, makes me realise the country really has gone completely mad.
All one can do is shake ones head in the absolute state of things.

[borcy]

I think the greens will win by 1-2%

I’ll be surprised: the tactical anti right wing voting will be strong in this constituency tho you never know: the 2024 election had a *lot* of did not votes. It’s going to be fascinating to watch especially if labour lose one of their safest constituencies to either Green or Reform: the ramifications will be huge. 3 months out from the locals and Starmer will be in a world of hurt and the PLP will start panicking. They’ll hold till May but the pressure will become unbearable and it’s not like he has a lot to look forward to over the next 3 months: more U turns and Chagos and.. etc etc

[Timothy Bucktu]

Labour are in panic stations as it is, hence trying and failing to stop local elections (Thanks, it has to be said, to Reform).

No more so than Reform, just a different flavour of pissing down your back and telling you it's raining.

True but only one leader has declared the ability to inflate the size of your breasts via hypnosis. And it isn’t either Starmer or Farage.

I never said you did say that. Wherein earth would you get that from? You were replying to my comment, so perhaps you should learn to read.

Enjoy your politically inclined day of speculation for no good reason until the results come out 3.5 years before a GE and thus having no bearing on it whatsoever.

And then you chipped in weirdly with your:

Which as far as I can make out is an utter non sequitur.
I don t know what thread you are reading.
