An unsurprising result.
But let's see a bigger picture for UK politics - Labour have a huge majority from 34% of a 60% turnout.
I take 2 things from that:
1) first past the post no longer works - it's hardly a ringing endorsement for Labour, whose vote share rose 2%!
2) people just don't trust politics in this country these days

Proportional representation is the only way forward, it provides a better representation of the vote and would likely encourage more to vote as they'd feel it could count for something.

(I voted Conservative in 2019, I voted Green this time around as they were the party telling it like it is)
