The UK Green Party's membership surpassed 200,000 this weekend following its first-ever national byelection victory in Gorton and Denton, where candidate Hannah Spencer defeated Labour's significant majority. Party leader Zack Polanski characterized the membership surge, which has tripled since September, as proof that "the future of progressive politics belongs to the Greens," as the party now holds five MPs and competes with major parties in polling.
