Hi, folks, welcome back to another one of our political chats, and it has been an exciting week in British politics, which is not something you can normally say, but man, a lot's gone on.

So we're going to talk about the showdown in Gorton and Denton, the by-election that has been called there because of the resignation of the Labour MP there and everything that's going on that you need to know.

But this is coming in the shadow

of today's PMQs where Kirstama got absolutely raked over the coals in front of the entire

country by not just Kenny Bade knock, but what's the Lib Dem? Oh, Ed Davy. Well, he had a weird

angle on it.

He had a strange angle, but the point is, a lot of stuff started coming out, and Kirstenma basically fumbled every answer.

Superb. And so it may well be that essentially by tomorrow, a lot has changed very, very quickly.

And so you'll get this, hopefully, the same day that we're recording it.

But by tomorrow, whatever is happening with that will overshadow a lot of what we're talking here.

Now, it's not that it'll render it invalid because essentially the same, all of the dyes are cast now, right?

So all of the people who will be candidates in Gawthon and Denton are candidates,

but the nature of the polling might change very rapidly.

That's true, but also we, all of these other chats,

we've done against a backdrop of Kea Stumbra probably can't be forced out.

Correct.

He's probably going to run until the next election,

and there's going to be this slow bleed effect

within the mainstream parties.

It might not be slow.

Yeah, and now it suddenly looks like,

I mean, Stama's position is really tenuous,
