Turnout in Gorton and Denton byelection over 47%, with 36,903 verified votes cast as Greens, Reform and Labour contest the seat
The Gorton and Denton byelection is the biggest electoral test yet for Keir Starmer before what are expected to be disastrous results for Labour in the May local elections.
The vote is particularly symbolic because of the threat Labour faces from Reform UK and the Green party in a once safe seat. There are big implications for Starmer’s premiership, whatever the result, but also for the wider political landscape.
