It amazes me that she nonetheless came so close to keeping her seat. Who voted for her?
I don’t like how it was a labour landslide. I hoped it would be more balanced with the tories getting fewer seats than green if any.
Her constituency are more anti Labour than they hate her. For them it was begrudgingly vote her still for the sake of conservatism or move onto reform. Owen Jones did a video where he went there to talk to the public. Some of them were crazy.
Interesting. Thank you.
Edit: Is this the video?
That's the one!
That guy knows what's up.
Fewer seats than green would mean under 4 seats. We can dream I guess
