   Did Labour defeat the Conservatives?

   • That goes too far. It is true that Labour’s victory was as much the Conservatives’ defeat. The Conservative vote collapsed by 20 percentage points, the largest decline by any governing party in British political history. Voters abandoned the party in all directions—not just for Labour but for the Liberal Democrats, Reform UK and the Green Party.

   What if I voted for a smaller party to Labour's left?

   • If you were voting for a smaller party to Labour’s left, like the Greens, both your level of enthusiasm for Labour and the amount you feared a Conservative government mattered.

   Would a Conservative vote result in a labour'supermajority'?

   Why did Rosie Duffield quit as a Labour MP?

   • The party’s poll ratings have plunged and Rosie Duffield has quit as a Labour MP, complaining about the “freebies” scandal. After being out of office for 14 years, has Labour forgotten how to govern? One peculiarity to this story is that it involves a struggle between backroom figures who, in normal times, the public would be unaware even exist.

   What is Labour's share of the vote?

   • Labour’s share of the vote, at 34%, is the lowest level for a governing party since at least the first world war (see chart 1). Instead of inspiring the masses, Sir Keir spearheaded a fearsomely efficient election-winning machine: it won 42 seats in Parliament for every 1m ballots cast, higher than any other major party in the past century.
