[@aesopstortoise]

Daisy has a curious notion of how to rebuild trust - subvert the largest vote in British history and refuse to work with a political opponent on one of your party's longest standing goals.

The liberals really are just a waste of space

[@Si_Mondo]

​@@ShyTalks-d8bAnd yet, Reform got more votes than them... 🤔

[@MarbleGiant]

So, that makes Reform a fraction of a waste of space! Like Nigel Mirage, insignificant.

[@DoggleBird]

​​@@MarbleGiantReform won more votes. The Lib Dems always complained that the electoral system was unfair. Now the victims of the unfairness are ReformUK, they no longer care. They are MASSIVE HYPOCRITES

How did the Libs get 72 seat with 3.5 million votes, when Reform only got 5 with over 5 million votes?

[@redtop1705]

Corrupt system

[@deano007]

This idiot wont acknowledge that…they got them by default

[@fredsmith5473]

Because heir vote tends to be concentrated in a few areas, rather than thinly spread across the country.

[@severanze9065]

Reform Ltd didnt get over 5 million votes, they only got just over 4 million so werent even close to the 5 million mark. It's quite telling the you were almost spot on with the number of votes received by the Lib Dems but grossly exaggarated the number of votes received by Reform Ltd...

[@Sam-tx1tn]

How this shower got 3.5 million votes is beyond me. The fact they got less than reform and 15 times as many seats is an absolute disgrace.

[@georgerj2419]

That’s why they are not interested in reforming the system.

[@MS-19]

@Sam-tx1tn First Past the Post. One MP per constituency. Broad voter bases, concentrating the vote enough to win in several areas. Benefitting from disappointment in the Conservative Party and being best placed in numerous areas to win from the Conservatives. Having a much longer electoral history than Reform UK. That's how.

[@julianbones9946]

That's ok. They will be left behind when reform takes power

[@TimComley]

You won’t have 72 next time round

[@vincekerrigan8300]

You shouldn't have 72 MPs, it's wrong.

[@MS-19]

It's perfectly simple - under First Past the Post, the candidate in each constituency who gets the largest number of votes wins the seat. In 2024, that was the Liberal Democrat candidate in 72 seats. Only a churl who is sore that their chosen party didn't do better on those terms would say that's wrong; only an idiot would look at the bare facts and try to argue they aren't facts.

[@artistreality]

How pathetic that we have gotten to a point 'liberals' don't even know what liberalism actually means or how political parties can't put aside differences to push a positive change. Reformuk all the way for me. There is no other option if you actually care about Britain as a whole. The LibLabCon needs to end.

[@crumpetsbuttered]

Actually the largest third party is Reform, the only reason you have more seats is the rediculouse first past the post system. Remember more people voted Reform in a short period of time than bothered voting for your limited ideas.

[@MS-19]

Ergo the third largest party is not Reform.

[@CeruleanSword]

Ffs. Can't believe I'm more aligned with Lib Dems than anything else. I want REFORMS ideas on immigration but Lib Dems ideas on marajuana legalisation. No political party represents me.

[@MS-19]

That's actually how a lot of MPs are, believe it or not - after all, one could be a Conservative in favour of Brexit or against Brexit, as was shown for decades right through the Brexit referendum and beyond. Every political candidate has weighed up the policy platforms of his or her political party and decided that on balance they are most aligned with their chosen party, but it is rare that they will align 100% with it.

[@angeladennison412]

So obvious to see why people like her cannot work with everyone and that’s the problem refusing to work together for the bigger picture the country it’s not about throwing your dummy out or saying I don’t like that person for whatever reason they’re supposed to do a job for the country and the people in it that help keep it Strong which is slowly disappearing so sad her smile is so disingenuous

[@robertdavies8305]

Libdems are afrade for change. If we change the way we vote they will get less. These so-called main parties will always stop change but they want the people to accept them in power. While a majority of them have never worked in their lives. My Labour MP, brags about his parent having to work to put him through university. Fine for that. But he has never worked in his life. Always in politics. I agree with Nigel it is time for change. We have lived in the past for far too long.
