Lucy Powell got Labour’s campaign off the ground in Gorton and Denton although the party has yet to pick its candidate
Powell in a message to voters said that it was a straight fight between Labour and Reform for the seat
The Greens she said have no presence in the constituency and citing the result in last year’s Runcorn by election when Labour lost by six votes,said that a vote for the Greens will let Reform in
Both the Greens and Labour have yet to announce their candidate
The Greens are set to announce tonight while rumours from Labour are that it is straight contest between Eamonn O’Brien, leader of Bury Council since 2021 and Angeliki Stogia, a Manchester city councillor since 2012, who stood for Chester South & Eddisbury in 2024.
