New Green MP Hannah Spencer slams ‘misinformation’ about her in lead up to polls
New Green Party MP Hannah Spencer said she had “targeted misinformation” directed at her in the build-up to the by-election in Gorton and Denton. Following the polls on Thursday, 26 February, the Greens received 14,980 votes, while Reform UK candidate Matt Goodwin came second with 10,578, ousting Labour from a formerly safe seat. Speaking to The Independent ahead of the by-election, Ms Spencer said that a man had walked past their party office shouting, "You're not a plumber", as she criticised those who "believe everything they've been told online". The new MP added, " I've been challenged on most aspects of my life, my personal life. What has been surprising is how much rampant misinformation there is flying around, which has been the case since day one.”
