Description
Both Reform’s Nigel Farage and Labour Prime Minister Keir Starmer have accused the Green Party of engaging in “sectarian” politics after Green candidate Hannah Spencer won the Gorton and Denton by-election last night.
But are these claims even remotely accurate?
Middle East Eye’s Imran Mulla takes a closer look at the Greens’ campaign, which brought together people from diverse ethnic, class and religious backgrounds around a shared political programme, and explains why it was, in fact, anti-sectarian.
