A huge win for the Greens and a massive loss for Labour and the government – Harriet thinks it’s a “bruising” defeat, so is Sir Keir Starmer now worried about the local elections in May?
The Gorton and Denton by-election result on Friday was a shock for Labour, who Beth says were convinced they would hold on to this once safe seat for the party. The Greens now have a new MP in Hannah Spencer.
Is this a sign of things to come in the May elections? Is the Green Party a serious contender and concern for the government? What does it mean for Labour to come third behind the Greens and Reform? And have Reform got a ceiling to their support?
Beth, Ruth and Harriet also discuss the arrest of former US ambassador Lord Mandelson this week. He denies all wrongdoing and his lawyers said he wants to “clear his name”.
