Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party is under investigation for distributing a letter endorsing candidate Matt Goodwin in Gorton and Denton without the required legal imprint indicating party funding. The letter, sent by local pensioner Patricia Clegg, criticized Labour leader Keir Starmer and urged voters to support Reform UK. The printing company, Hardings, claimed the omission was due to a production error, while Greater Manchester Police confirmed they would investigate the matter. The by-election was triggered by the resignation of Labour MP Andrew Gwynne, and the outcome may signal voter sentiment ahead of the May local elections.
