The BBC took THIS LONG to mention the obvious. The first past the post system has in 2024 produced non-representation of the population in parliament. The fact that they write about this because of a moan by Reform UK is daft and misleading. Labour did not win here. The Tories lost. It is the least-endorsed government of all time and the UK did not swing to Labour but away from Tories. BBC & Grauniad failed to even attempt to bring this up. Only one explanation....
