Thought I'd check, seems the right wing lost about 25% of their votes (though from a high starting point) and the left wing stayed about the same (gained 5% if you count the Greens). Votes for each party, change 2019-2024 (based on aggregate vote counts from Wikipedia): - Labour lost 0.5M votes (2024: 9.7M) - Conservatives lost 7.1M votes (2024: 6.8M) - Reform (new party) gained 4.1M votes (2024: 4.1M) - LibDems lost 0.2M votes (2024: 3.5M) - Greens gained 1.0M votes (2024: 1.8M) - SNP lost 500k votes (2024: 0.7M) I suppose anyone counting Reform on the right should also count Green on the left, so the "left group" (Labour+Green) got more votes than the "right group" (Tory+Reform). The split vote is what caused the massive change in parliament though, a proportional result would be about even left/right with LibDem as kingmakers. Tis a silly place.
