Spencer won a historic by-election on February 27, 2026, becoming the Greens' first MP in northern England by overturning a large Labour majority in Manchester's diverse Gorton and Denton area. The uproar centers on a photo from her February campaign visit to a local Islamic centre, where she wore a keffiyeh scarf while promising support for Gaza—now wrongly claimed to honor Ayatollah Khamenei, killed two days later in U.S.-Israeli strikes on February 28. Critics called her a traitor, with figures like John Cleese and Carole Malone weighing in, though no evidence shows post-death mourning, and Spencer has stayed silent amid Britain's divided reactions to Khamenei's death.

Moderator Joshua Medina expressed shock and apologized, while Bratman called the incident '100 percent antisemitic.' New York Governor Kathy Hochul condemned it as antisemitism and demanded accountability from CUNY, which launched an investigation amid online backlash and concerns over campus safety and Israel-Gaza tensions.
