"No UK prime minister has served a full term since David Cameron", writes #BenQuinn in #TheGuardian https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jun/22/keir-starmer-quits-prime-minister-what-will-happen-next-uk-politics-explained
Quinn's article is not analysis, but it's a valuable survey.
My takeaway is how the case for #FPTP voting has collapsed. It used to be a stabiliser: heavily-rewarded winners got a safe majority to govern.
But that no longer works. Big majority govts now implode rapidly and spectacularly.
Time for #STV, to create a representative parliament.
