Labours vote share this time around compared to Corbyn in 2017 and 2019 is dismal

[twisteddancer]

48 % didn't vote for the uni parties

The only country in Europe using this massively unrepresentative system. Labour win 2.5 times as many votes as Reform, and get 102.5 times as many seats. It's ridiculous.

[TG-tsxn]

Based on votes, very different to number of seats.

Interesting to see how the political map has shifted post-election! 🗺 Excited for what's next in UK politics!

I believe British people can start thinking to change election system to another more proporcional. The system is very undemocratic, the Parliament do not represent the will of the people.

No more Cameron smirking in our face . How good that feels

So a party who only has a third of the support of the country ( 80% of the registered voters DID NOT vote for Labour ) has so much power over us. Scary times we live in. R.I.P Great Britain. R.I.P England.

6:37 Another way to read the data, Labour vote didn't increase. Torie vote move to other parties Reform and LibDem. Others. Ind and Extremist won places. Interesting to see how she didn't mentioned anything about Reform having 14% of the total number of votes.

adopt the Australian voting system, preferential voting that will benefit minor parties, and compulsory voting which would generate a bigger backlash against the establishment and be more democratic and representative.

They absolutely got slapped in the north and London, fair play to Rishi for being unbelievably bad.

[Bada_Bing]

Lowest % share of the vote in British history.

[yrv]

Labour has an incredibly soft mandate, good chance they're one and done by 2029

[cr]

Let's just ignore Reform shall we???

[Bundwich]

Lmao

They sick of labour, so they voted Tories. They got sick of Tories, they've voted labour.

What's to be happy about.

[rogueplaguex]

i feel like sunak was tryna get out of office tbh

[mohammedansarali]

They think people are stupid, politician is the dirty game.

[jamespitcher]

Would be good to show a graph of voter turnout over time for context really

[dominokid]

No matter what Rishi did, he was always ice skating uphill. This country will swallow what it has chosen and like it

[jillianjoyce]

Her phoney breathless voice at team b of the uniparty taking over from team a. The UK Media is truly dire.
