"#Starmer enjoyed the backing of scarcely a fifth of eligible voters, in what was the second-lowest turnout since 1885. By contrast, Starmer’s much more leftwing predecessor as #Labour leader, Jeremy #Corbyn – roundly dismissed by mainstream media as “unelectable” – secured 40% of the vote in 2017. It was the party’s biggest surge in votes since 1945."
