How Gorton & Denton changed British politics | with Luke Tryl

In the end, it was not even that close. The Green party has stormed to victory in Gorton and Denton, winning their first ever parliamentary by-election by more than 4,000 votes.

The result changes everything: the Lib Dems are no longer the party of the protest vote; Reform’s tanks are parked on Labour’s lawn; the left has split; and the Tories are nowhere to be seen. The era of two-party politics is well and truly over, and this morning’s result could well be remembered as the moment when that became glaringly apparent. Where do we go from here?

James Heale and Tim Shipman discuss with pollster Luke Tryl.
