Thanks to Count Binface for being a part of this video and a part of British democracy: https://www.youtube.com/@realcountbinface

And to Captain Disillusion for being the hero we deserve but not the one we need right now: youtube.com/CaptainDisillusion

For more (non-election related) unnecessary detail, tickets for upcoming London shows are available here: https://festivalofthespokennerd.com/tickets/

All of the election data came from these House of Commons Library briefings:

2019: https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-8749/
2017: https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-7979/
2015: https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-7186/

Huge thanks to my Patreon supporters. I know I can always Count on them. https://www.patreon.com/standupmaths
