    Let’s not forget, with FPTP and voter turnout, it’s not half.

    In the 2019 general election, they won 43% of the votes with 67% turnout, which, to be fair, was higher than Labour at 32% of the votes.

    Brexit was 52% of votes with 72% turnout.

    I wish we had a higher turnout and it’s hard to justify that the will of the people is not met if they don’t bother voting but guess I’m just saying, it’s not true that it’s over half of the country.
