Overview
- Speaking at Parliament’s Big Iftar, Wes Streeting said Reform is trying to delegitimise Muslim voters and called Matt Goodwin’s comments about who counts as British “the most un-British thing I can think of.”
- On GB News, Goodwin argued it takes more than paperwork to be British, urged crackdowns on family and postal voting, and said voters should be “actually British.”
- Election observers from Democracy Volunteers reported illegal family voting at 68% of 22 polling stations they monitored in Gorton and Denton.
- Reform said it has reported alleged family-voting irregularities to the police and the Electoral Commission, with any official findings still pending.
- The Greens’ Hannah Spencer won the seat with 14,980 votes, with Reform on 10,578 and Labour on 9,364, as Nigel Farage condemned “sectarian voting” and proposed restricting national voting to British passport holders.
