A projection of how the election results would look if we used Additional Member System (AMS), like in Scotland and Wales.
| Party | AMS | FPTP | Seat change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Labour | 236 | 411 | +175 |
| LibDems | 77 | 71 | -6 |
| Green | 42 | 4 | -38 |
| SNP | 18 | 9 | -9 |
| Plaid Cymru | 4 | 4 | 0 |
| Reform | 94 | 5 | -89 |
| Conservative | 157 | 121 | -36 |
| Northern Ireland | 18 | 18 | 0 |
| Other | 4 | 6 | +2 |
Labour didn’t win this election. The lib dems didn’t do particularly well and the tories didn’t even perform that badly.
Labour and the lib dems are congratulating themselves on their wins but the reality is reform handed them most of the seats by splitting the right wing vote.
We need electoral reform so badly. Without it we’re just going to go back to Conservative majorities as soon as they sort their shit out.
