over 40% of the vote – significantly outperforming polling. huge win for the party and a complete failure of strategy from labour
Disaster for Labour, Reform underperformed as well. Much easier win than expected for Greens in the end.
What an awesome news to wake up to. People show up if it means reform won’t get in, and that’s a powerful signal of the years to come.
Obviously it’s interesting that Labour came third.
But they’re really not that far from Reform who really underperformed.
I think the Greens did much better than even optimistic polls expected with 41%.
Interesting times indeed.
Could this be a false dawn for the greens? They are certainly gaining a lot of traction but not sure how it will translate to a GE.
Labour in tatters, some of their campaigning has been shocking. Wonder if this will give them a kick up the arse, probably not, which is ironic as their record in government is not totally terrible. Very bad for Starmer.
Tories less than 2% lol. Fuck reform.
Fair play, I would be a reform voter personally but they walked it and you have to give them credit where it is due.
They managed to bring together a real mix of the left which I dont think would hold if they ever got a majority in gvt as its to fractured but nice to let few greens have a run around westminster 🙂
I’ve said this elsewhere but I called this wrong so congratulations to the Greens.
However, their policy on NATO was and is batshit insane. Nobody sensible in our country can support that.
Edit: and here come the downvotes. I’ve listened to Polanski on this, his policy on NATO is genuinely dangerous. I know people are in denial but it’s true. They want to leave NATO.
Disastrous result for Sir Oink A-Lot, he was the real change the country deserved.
I think I’m right in saying that this seat wasn’t even in the top 100 of the Green Party’s target seats. This is the first Northern seat they’ve won too. I think it’s safe to say that Labour’s strategy of focus on winning Reform voters and ignoring their base has completely failed, as many have been pointing out for quite some time.
Tories ran a trustee of Sex Matters and she only got 706 votes. Pathetic.
[Only Labour can stop Reform](https://x.com/UKLabour/status/2025970095193817425), eh? Ouch.
Anyone think Labour will finally get the message, or will they double down on going after the Conformative voters?
Great choice of candidate from the Greens. Simple as that.
It wasn’t even close. No wonder the election fraud narrative was getting pushed late yesterday afternoon; Reform knew they weren’t winning.
It wasn’t even close either. Despite the best efforts of the media machine.
Fits with the narrative that I have been hearing (and seeing with my own eyes) in blue belt areas of kent, surrey and essex where conservative members are openly talking about tactically voting to stop reform (or restore I guess)
Im friendly with my local conservative association and they are very much middle of the road centrists and scared by reform/nigel farage.
I bet on a Green win based on that. Happy days.
I was grumpy about having pregnancy insomnia and being awake at 4am, but seeing this amazing result come in definitely makes up for it!!
That is some serious Anti-reform tactical voting. I love to see it.
I was super unhappy to wake up really early this morning. I went downstairs and put the kettle on and then switched on the tv. Saw it happening live. I’m so so happy! Gorton is just down the road from me so it’s a local thing. Loved seeing that reform boy in the background during her speech
Glad Reform didnt win, they’re already spinning a “stolen election!!” yarn on Twitter, but fucking hell the Green party policy platform AND this campaign specifically have filled me with nothing but dread.
Fantastic news . Some of the more sloppy right wing UK subs reporting election fraud. Utter nonsense . Well done to the Green Party .
13,000 majority to third and 15 points behind. This is horrific. Starmer has got to go and Labour has to start delivering for people in ways they can actually feel.
There was a worry that Labour and Green would split the vote between them and allow a Reform win, but in the end even a perfect 50/50 split wouldn’t have been enough for Reform.
Happy about the Green win. I wonder if Labour will take their alienation of the left wing of the party more seriously now.
This vote will have split down racial and religious lines. Largely White Denton will have voted Reform, and largely Muslim Gorton will have voted Green. Gorton is twice as large as Denton. Balkanisation of British politics.

Reform must be gutted.
Lead g in polls and beaten comprehensively
Great outcome very happy. Tories and Labour both need to be utterly smashed at the next election.Â
It’s going to be the Greens vs Reform for the soul of Britain. Ho Lee Fook!
Are the conservatives facing de facto extinction now? I believe until the last election they were the most successful political party in European history. What a sea change.
Nigel Farage already going full Trump and claiming “cheating” without any real evidence. He’s also (quite incredibly) accusing the Greens of “sectarianism” for daring to appeal to the Muslim base. The irony just kind of writes itself.
