You see this, this is what happens in real life. The bots can't show up on the streets. On the right there (yeah the far right) are the 6 nazis who turned up to cause mayhem. Everyone else is there to stop them. This is England.

The efficiency of the combined LD/LAB vote shares is a real sight to behold. The Lib Dem share in seats Labour won seems to have rarely surpassed 10%, then as soon as the Labour share drops below ~30% the LD share explodes.

"Unlike American presidents, who must only contemplate the terrifying nuclear power they control, British prime ministers must actually decide—definitively—whether they would use that power." Fascinating piece from @brianklaas: theatlantic.com/international/…

Strongly disagree. This is FPTP at its *best*, allowing the electorate to mete out proper punishment and let another team have a proper go of it without having to bend to fringe parties that hardly anybody at all wants.
John Burn-Murdoch@jburnmurdoch

I just can’t get past Labour winning 65% of seats off 34% of the vote. Absolutely wild mismatch between the headline result and, well, everything else. Britain is now a multi-party system, and first-past-the-post can’t cope.

UKIP 2015: 3.8m votes - 12.6% Reform 2024: 4m votes - 14.3% The media narrative could easily be: why hasn’t the hard-right made more progress in the last ten years? But it isn’t.

It's astonishing that Labour are going to win the biggest majority of the postwar era and the BBC cannot stop talking about Reform. Reform's relative success is absolutely part of the story but they are not the main story.
