Hannah Spencer, a 34-year-old plumber and plasterer, won the Gorton and Denton by-election for Britain's Green Party, becoming the first MP elected for the party since leader Zack Polanski took over. Spencer's working-class background and focus on cost-of-living and Gaza issues represent the Greens' effort to broaden their appeal beyond environmental concerns and challenge their middle-class image.
