A minor political earthquake shook #Kent this morning after the #GreenParty defied expectations to snatch victory at a crunch by-election.

The Greens’ decisive win in the #Cliftonville division of Kent County Council (#KCC) came after an intense two month campaign into which four of the main parties threw huge resources

For #Reform UK, it was the first by-election to be fought since their massive victory at KCC last year and was regarded as a “must win”

But they did not win.

They failed.

@Geri I'm over the moon - both that the Greens won, and even gladder Reform lost.

@Remittancegirl so are we !

If we can win in Thanet, we can win anywhere xx

@Geri This is true!

@Remittancegirl I am going to break section 12 of the Terrorism Act tomorrow 🤪

Will you still love me xx

@Geri I will not only still love you, I will cheer you on and chip in for your legal fees if needed!
