    Interesting to see how the political map has shifted post-election! 🗺 Excited for what's next in UK politics!
  • Labours vote share this time around compared to Corbyn in 2017 and 2019 is dismal
  • 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-ts3xn
    Based on votes, very different to number of seats.
  • @totom5095
    No more Cameron smirking in our face . How good that feels
  • @agentsmith6492
    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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

    They absolutely got slapped in the north and London, fair play to Rishi for being unbelievably bad.
  • @TheUnshackled
    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.
  • @Bada_Bing79
    Lowest % share of the vote in British history.
  • @cr3237
    Let's just ignore Reform shall we???
  • @yrv378
    Labour has an incredibly soft mandate, good chance they're one and done by 2029
  • @niz32iqbal
    Lmao They sick of labour, so they voted Tories. They got sick of Tories, they've voted labour. What's to be happy about.
  • @MidwestArtMan
    Labour losing seats in districts with massive Muslim populations. Ironic.
