UPVC window handle stopped working

Hi all. I have a handle on a UPVC window that's refusing to budge. It was working fine until recently - we open it once or twice every day - then suddenly refused to move. I can depress the button, but no matter how hard I try, I cannot force the handle to turn. There is half a key stuck in the lock, but that's been there for years.

Any ideas or advice would be gratefully received.

The push button has failed which is very common on that make of handle, not repairable so need to replace the handle
