    Lack of enthusiasm. To many voters not inspired by any party.

    Oh and polling is predicting it.

        Left wing voters with no one representing there views. Can get pissed of as well.

        Fptp is far from a motivating system. Some of voters really do not think starmer will be any better.

        I personally tend to be anything but the tories. But many in the UK are less political and do not see starmer as anything but another living politician.

      Yeah, good points. I think it will be a differential turnout and it will be low overall… but only because the right wing voters stay at home, while the centre and left come out in force to administer a kicking to the Tories. I.e., even a higher turnout won’t save the Tories, because it’s not the left that have the enthusiasm problem. It’s just negative enthusiasm.
