Tories Eat Shit challenge

Biggest win of last night was the radical underperforming of Reform. 13 seats projected, 4 secured.

Presuming Reform isn't as "reformative" as it sounds? Don't know a ton about English politics.

Reform is Farage's Nazi party (formerly UKIP). Labour is akin to Dems, currently being led by a hawk with VERY centrist tendencies. Tories ~= Bush GOP LibDem ~= AOC Dems Green = socialist SNP/SF/PC = leftist separatists for Scotland, Ireland, Wales respectively

So, globally speaking center-right to far-left now control 79% of seats (with 63% going to the center-right to center). Which is a HUGE improvement over the last decade and change, where right to far-right held that same margin.

These are really good comparisons for quick understanding, thank you! Get absolutely fucked Nigel. Pulling for Green and all the leftists – great showing on their parts. I wish the Tories a very merry go to hell.

Tbh the biggest upset is LibDem, which have historically been less than useless. This is the largest showing they ever had, I think? And yeah. Fuck the Tories. And get milkshaked, Farage.

I hope Farage never knows peace.

Libdems are further left than Labour?

At the moment, yes. Tho they trade off both generally and on specific issues.

Starmer’s Labour are likely going to be the most conservative Labour govt in our lifetime

First Past the Post giveth, but also taketh away. It's undemocratic and it needs to be eliminated. The ensuing oscillation between two conservative parties and their preferred weapons of austerity and neoliberalism is destroying every Western state (especially Canada).

My kingdom for ranked choice

Canadian aristocracy said we have to stick with FPTP which gives the game away
