It really wouldn’t surprise me if Labour win it, they will likely have the best data of the three parties and none of the opinion polls would give me confidence.

Also “energetic” campaigns, every time I see anything about their campaigns they seem to be having issues.

I see that Starmer has been to Gorton today, in advance of polling day on Thursday. Very unusual for a party leader, especially one serving as PM, to visit a by-election at all.

Looks like Labour isn’t giving this one up without a fight.

I see the Greens going to be debating a motion that Zionism is racism, calling the overwhelming majority* of the population racists may not be the vote winner they think it is.

* figures for the population are hard to find - presumably because it's such a fringe position -, but even among the young, only 21% say Israel has no right to exist.

This won't get much attention. The Greens are doing their job, taking votes from Labour.
