Starmer’s Labour won a landslide only thanks to Tories’ unpopularity and the quirks of the electoral system. Starmer won his seat with 18884 votes this time compared to 36,641 in 2019. Starmer’s purge of pro-Palestinian candidates cost him a lot of votes. The pro-Palestinian independent candidate in his constituency came in 2nd with more than 7000 votes. Corbyn, who got kicked out of the party by Starmer, won his seat as an independent. #ukpol #uk palestine group (npub1zxn…0kqm)
