@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... It's worth noting that probably the largest single class of resources that the Greens put into Gorton and Denton was individual members buying rail tickets, bus tickets, tram tickets or sharing cars to get to Manchester. Given the debate about the desirability of contesting Makerfield, there might be fewer volunteers choosing to pitch in. The Green Party doesn't _control_ the primary resources needed in these by-elections.
