The Green Party in Denton whored themselves out to secure a vote...

245 replies

Luckymum20 · 01/03/2026 18:15

The Green Party. A party for women. A party for equality. A party for the rights for gay and trans people.... They ran their campaign on the Gaza stance. To secure the vote of people who go against the majority of their principles.

I am disgusted that British Politics, which is already in the gutter, a party who should champion ethics and morals, has sunk this low.

Surly I cannot be the only one who thinks this way?

When was the last time a Muslim chucked a gay off a crane in Manchester?

88% of uk halal meat is stunned before slaughter. Zack polanski is Jewish and almost 100% of kosher meat is not stunned before slaughter.

Welcome to our wonderful world full of nuance and contradictions where nothing fits in neat little boxes!

Well, it was Islamic State who did that in any case. Not a regime, more a terrorist organisation. And of course posters on here love to insinuate that all Muslims are like them.

I'll tell that to the gay Muslims I know and inform them they're not doing Islam properly

Parsley4321 · 02/03/2026 22:27

@Madarch ok please do i know several and their families are definitely not on board and it’s considered haram

Zack Polanski, the guy who charges to talk to women’s chests. Gross.

He and all his loony band of weirdos also openly say that women can have a penis.

So much for women’s rights and respect for women. Women who vote for these loons really are misguided.

BeAvidHiker · 02/03/2026 22:40

And the Greens are definitely exploiting Muslim voters. They are nothing but a bunch of rabid far left anti semitic Marxists. Jumping on Gaza like it’s some kind of bandwagon. They care as much about Gaza as they do about the environment. Which is zero, nada, zilch.

They care a lot more about women’s rights than this lot.

The Greens have been vocal on Gaza for years. It is an important issue to many Muslims in Gorton I'm sure but it's not like the Greens changed their stance to appeal. And Muslims are still very much the minority. The Greens only won because people of all backgrounds voted for Hannah Spencer..

Loads of Muslims in this country aren't homophobic or anti women by the way.

If they were so bigoted as you want to believe surely they wouldn't have voted for a Western woman who works for a party with a gay Jewish leader.

The sour grapes brigade on here like to pretend that Gorton and Denton is majority Muslim. In fact it's 83% white. And 66% of the vote went to Labour or Green. A sound majority rejection of Reform, hence all the whining.

BIossomtoes · 03/03/2026 07:31

It will be interesting when the analysis of the demographic of the vote comes out. Hopefully it will put all this to bed once and for all.

On the contrary, the majority of UK Muslims go as far as wanting to outlaw homosexuality.

The majority also want sharia law which is mindblowingly anti women.

Just because people don’t talk about it publicly doesn’t meant it’s not their views.

What, this Henry Jackson Society?

"Co-founder Matthew Jamison, who now works for YouGov, wrote in 2017 that he was ashamed of his involvement, having never imagined the Henry Jackson Society "would become a far-right, deeply anti-Muslim racist ... propaganda outfit to smear other cultures, religions and ethnic groups". He claimed that "The HJS for many years has relentlessly demonised Muslims and Islam"

Eh? Where are you getting your figures from?

Only Denton is majority white, Gorton is 40% Muslim and overall 60% non white plus a heavy student population. Look it up.

As PP says, the breakdown of voting demographic will be very interesting.

You do know that Labour lost worse than Reform? I’m not sure why you are trying to shut down discussion by repeatedly going on about ‘sour grapes’ - electoral fraud was highlighted by the independent observers.

That Labour has more skin in the game than they will admit means that it is left to Reform to call out electoral fraud which, for our government is a pretty bad look.

So the Muslims who answered the survey were lying? Look it up - other research says a similar things

Even your beloved Henry Jackson Society shows the Muslim population of the constituency to be below 30%.

It may have escaped your notice but Gorton and Denton are very separate areas. You only mentioned the demographic of one area where white people are the majority.

Why did you fail to mention the make up of the other area where white people are a definite minority? It’s a very split constituency.

A party for women??! 😂

They don’t give a fuck about women.

You’re still a sore loser though.

And why are you calling it ‘my beloved’ Jackson Society? That’s a bit odd .

It’s just a source on the internet that provides some information. Look up the info for yourself if you don’t like my source - the data doesn’t change.

Heres another source you might like better. It’s a Muslim website celebrating the influence and power of the Muslim vote, plans to increase that and urging Muslims to vote with Islamic principles first and foremost.
They are rather scathing about Labour despite the extreme measures Labour already taken to capture the votes and guiding Muslims on who to choose. It’s interesting.

Love that the Greens won. Well done to Hannah and Zack. I’ll be voting tactically to keep reform out, but am hoping that’ll mean a vote for the Greens.

No, those figures are for the whole constituency. As you’d have seen had you bothered to read the link.

Parsley4321 · 03/03/2026 18:33

The point here is that even though we may not always feel comfortable with some of the social values that British political parties and candidates align with, these issues can be overlooked in pursuit of more urgent matters. For instance, protecting our brothers and sisters facing genocide in Gaza, or at the very least reducing harm against them.
there you have it ignore he’s a gay Jew she’s a woman vote in line with Allah fuck that shit !
please for the love of god can you not see what’s in front of your eyes the creep of Islam using greens as a front and they’re too arrogant and stupid to see this
