The Bundestag elections in 2019: What the victory is behind the Conservatives?

Oct 4,2023 2:11 pm

Boris Johnson has won a decisive majority, to the rear is a large swing from Labour to the Conservatives in the Leave-voting in the UK.

But North of The Border , the SNP dramatically, swept almost the Board.

all the results now declared, the Prime Minister has a majority of 80 seats - the largest Tory majority since 1987.

is Now at 44%, The Party vote Share to the highest level since 1979, when Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister .

work, in contrast, finds himself with a little More Than 200 seats, even less than The Party won in its previous worst post-war result in the year 1983.

The difference between Leave and sit

Still, The Swing in the Tories' varies in favor of dramatically across the country.

In such Places , where More Than 60% of voters Leaving supports, the increase in Conservative support, from an average of 6%.

seats But, in those where More Than 60% of this Stay tuned, will fell The Party is the result of the vote will actually go through three points.

In contrast, the labour vote fell on average by More Than 10 points in the pro-Leave.

His voice fell by More Than six points in The Most pro-Stay ones.

working-class and middle-class voters

This pattern had a significant influence on the geography of the Election .

the support for the Conservatives rose by four points in The Midlands , North East and Yorkshire regions of England That have the selected most strongly in the favor of the.

In contrast, The Party of his voice, fell back by a point in London and The South East.

And in Scotland , The Party 's vote fell by More Than four points.

conversely, labour saw its vote fall from 12 to 13 points in the North East and Yorkshire , while there were only six or seven points in London and The South of England.

The result of work on the ground saw lose, difficult in its traditional working-class heartland.

Support for The Party fell by 11 points in those districts with The Most voters in the working-class jobs.

their vote Share fell by only seven points in those with The Most middle-class voters.

The Bond between labour and its traditional working-class base is now tense.

In the EU-referendum working class voters voted in favor of leaving the EU. These voters had already swung very heavily to the Conservatives in 2017.

the work trying to keep their support remaining ambiguous, whether it was a per-Stay or per-party Left.

But this Election saw the pro-Conservative tendency still further.

As a result, labor is dramatically lost, and many a seat in the North of England and The Midlands - Places like Ashfield, Bishop Auckland , and Workington - they had never before elected a Conservative MP in a General Election .

A and encourages SNP

the success of The Conservatives in England and Wales has been matched to That of the SNP in Scotland .

The Party , which won 48 of the 59 seats North of The Border , and 45% of the vote in Scotland as a whole.

It is a result is almost as good as The Party 's historic performance in the Election in 2015.

Scotland -vote-free

After 59 59 seats

Party % - proportion of SNP-45. 0% CON 25. 1% LAB 18. 6%, LD 9. 5% GRN 1. 0% BRX 0. 5% of Scotland 's vote Share change since 2017

After 59 59 seats

Lost Won, SNP +8. 1 LD +2. 8 GRN +0. 8 BRX +0. 5 CON -3. 5 LAB -8. 5

And, in a country, the Stay voted in favour of it, it is encourage probably to the SNP in his pursuit of a second independence referendum.

This is a vote to oppose the Conservatives strong. So, a constitutional conflict between the Scottish and UK government seems likely.

Liberal Democrats losses

One of the SNP is the largest head was skin - a defeat That capped a miserable night for the Liberal Democrats .

in Spite of advancing more in a pro-still areas, The Party is likely to sit at the end with only 11 or 12.

This will not be More Than The Number you won in the year 2017, even though their vote Share by four points.

None of the many members who defected to The Party during The Last Bundestag, to retain their seats.

Less than half of Brexit parties

backed up the announcement of The Election was welcomed, with concerns about The Level of turnout for a ballot, instead of just two weeks before Christmas.

In The Event That about 67% of the voters to the polls - only two points down on 2017.

the turnout fell most significantly in the seats where labour are relatively strong, suggesting That some of those who usually support The Party decided to stay at home.

The Conservative " success means That the UK is now the EU at the end of January.

However, it seems unlikely That at the end of The Debate on Britain's relationship with the EU.

the Land of The divisions over Brexit were exposed in the very different swings across the country.

Meanwhile, at 47%, less than half of the voters the Conservatives or the Brexit - supported party, the parties are in favour of leaving the EU without a further referendum.

This is a point That the opponents of the Brexit likely to come a point in The Weeks and months.

But for now at least, The Day is very clear to Mr Johnson.
