It depends who they stand though - it needs to be someone strong with cross-appeal, not just a candidate who only appeals to people who already vote Green.

Feeling a bit demoralised about the by-election when I hear who's likely to stand for each party. I thought we were going to get some strong heavy-hitters all round but that seems less likely now. What a mess. That's our lives that people are playing with.

I really hope the Greens do stand a strong candidate here though. There's a lot of support for them so I don't understand why they've neglected us for so long!

far-right and other wackos will all be swinging their cocks around. It will be tight but I think Labour or Green will win. If Greens win Burnham is out of a job though. More worrying is the Mayoral election - my fear is that Reform could win that, then we're really up shit creek. Argh! 😬

Gorton and Denton is my constituency. I've no problem with Burnham standing but sorry to lose him as Mayor. He's the strongest Labour candidate by a mile. It's still a risk though, especially if Greens stand an equally strong candidate. The by-election will be a circus. Reform, Galloway and various

Personally, I don't think there's time for Burnham to pull it out of the bag for this by-election. It would create chaos. But then three and a half months is a long time in politics. I wouldn't be averse to him being our MP though.

This is the first time I've stopped all day, am knackered now. No update on the piss test yet, that'll be tomorrow now. I'm hoping that no news is good news 🙏

Somehow, on top of my usual morning routine, I managed to drop a piss sample off at the vet and still made it back to start work on time. Need a rest now! 😅
