Hello, newscast tradition has continued.
We have done a live multimedia analysis extravaganza on Friday morning following a by-election.
In this case, the by-election was in Gorton and Denton in Greater Manchester,
and the big story is that it was won by the Greens.
All throughout this campaign, the polls were suggesting it was a three-way battle between Labour,
reform, and the Greens.
Anyone could have won it, and the Greens won it.
quite convincingly.
And just a bit of backstory before we dive into the analysis.
This was this constituency that became vacant because Andrew Gwynne had been the Labour MP,
he was a health minister,
he had the party wit withdrawn for a series of offensive WhatsApp messages that emerged and then he retired as an MP on health grounds.
