  2. Interesting that 60% of registered electors voted in 2024, but that constitutes under 53% of the voting age population. So more than 1 in 8 adults in the UK are not registered or eligible to vote. #UKElection2024 #UKPolitics ippr.org/articles/half-of-us

  3. “Basically it’s friends, relations, office workers. One of the candidates got their partner to stand.” #ReformLtd #REFUK #UKElection2024 bbc.com/news/articles/ckvgl9kz

  4. Unlike the dark days of 2015/2016, the result of this week's #ukelection2024 and #france24 reminds me these are the birth places of modern democracy, all eyes are now on you #usa2024 , do us proud!

  5. It’s not widely appreciated that numbers of votes and seats directly determine the amount of state funding that opposition parties receive—currently around 20p per vote per year. It’s significantly higher for parties with >5 seats, so #Reform and the Greens just missed out. #UKElection2024

  7. This purge has turned Labour into a mirror image of the Conservatives: obsequious toward big business, advocating austerity at home and militarism abroad. It has also foreshadowed how Mr. Starmer would operate in Downing Street.

  8. Fifty shades of beige… this humorous video pretty much sums up my reaction, that of a highly engaged and interested Yank, to the #UKElection - but I must say, I am most gratified to see Truss, Mordant and Rees-Mogg gone, whilst Jeremy Corbyn prevails as an independent. One thing is for certain, the next few weeks and months will be interesting viewing for keen observers. #UKElection2024 #UKPolitics #Conservatives #ConservativesFearChange

  14. Has anyone made a CassetteBoy style edit of #RishiSunak singing "Komm Susser Tod" from #Evangelion yet?

    It all returns to nothing
    It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down...

  15. I would have been so pleased if Suella Braverman had lost her seat, but the fact the her nastiness will be hidden for a while is good. Delighted that Corbyn won. #ukelection2024 #ToriesOut

  17. “Farage is the horror version of Inside Out, where Mendacity is only just holding off Racism at the control console… the idea that this hollow chancer should still be one of the most significant politicians of the age says everything about the age.” #UKElection2024 theguardian.com/commentisfree/

  18. File this chart under Bad Electoral Systems in Action!

    The UK #LabourParty is justifiably celebrating their blowout victory in yesterday's #UKElection2024, but how big a blowout was it?

    Labour won just 34% of the national vote but now has 64% of the seats in #Westminister.

    The single-seat-per-constituency, first-past-the-post system does a poor job of representing the "will of the people"

    Under a PR system, #KeirStarmer would need to build a coalition government

  24. At least ELEVEN cabinet members lost their seats. A record.

       

  25. I stayed up long enough for Rees-Mogg, not long enough for Truss.

    How 'bout you?
