Yeah, my take away is that the first past the post system is fundamentally broken. Somehow this election shows that Corbyn was a failure and Starmer is great even though Corbyn got both more votes and a higher % of the vote in the massive Labour defeat than Starmer is getting in the massive Labour win.
Yet somehow nobody in the press is talking about that. They're claiming that somehow this is related to differences in how Corbyn and Starmer positioned the Labour party.
