Can the Greens win the Gorton & Denton by-election? | #Railnatter 296

from #Railnatter · host Gareth Dennis

This one's important. If the Greens win, it will end Starmer's short stint as PM and - as importantly - show that Reform are NOT the default winners at the next general election. But can they do it? Transport is a key local issue in this byelection, and given its importance for communities and indeed the future of our democracy, it was time to create a new scoring system to help target where improvements need to be made: the PROCIV system. It's scientific - and it helps us see what improvements Gorton and Denton must see to make people's lives better. Support #Railnatter at https://patreon.com/garethdennis.
