For once Sky has it spot on: ‘A thumping majority without a thumping share of the vote’ Starmer has less votes than Jeremy Corbyn in 2017 because he only offers more of the same It’s not just a bad day for democracy. It’s a dangerous day for democracy.

This is a clear message to Starmer that his Zionist policies are not cutting it with the elecorate.

Fewer votes even than 2019's "worst defeat since 1935"...!!! The case for #ProportionalRepresentation has NEVER been more powerfully made...!!!

The UK had the chance to change this in 2011 and decided to keep FPTP. We should respect the will of the people. This is what they wanted.

Corbyn would be PM if he was leader of Labour this year . Tory voters haven’t changed their minds about Labour, they’ve just defected to Reform

Shocking state of affairs when a party can win nearly 2/3 of the seats while being shunned by 4/5 of eligible voters. Blighty is truly in tinpot despot/dictator territory now.

Whatever you can call it, you cannot call it democracy in the commonly understood meaning of the term: an electoral system that works to efficiently and broadly reflect the will of the people (i.e. the wishes of a majority, and preferably a LARGE majority).

You wouldn’t think so on BBC. It predictable how they can skewer the same information to suit their own agenda.

don't you think it's also worth mentioning that Corbyn TODAY won his seat with a greater % of the vote share than Starmer won his?? on the contrary, the power of independents, smaller parties (yes, even the bad ones) & grassroots movements actually indicates a healthy democracy!
