Starmer isn't the issue with that. The stats from a number of general elections show that pattern and Starmer hasn't been the leader in any yet, although its pretty telling that your go to response was automatically to blame him.
Well, Starmer has been the Parliamentary Labour Party leader for fifteen months now. Therefore that elapsed time means all the problems that the PLP has must now be laid at Starmer's and his cohorts door.
Those problems are:-
Fewer MPs now than when his predecessor left office.
Far fewer local councillors now than when his predecessor left office.
Far fewer Labour Party members now than when his predecessor left office.
Far fewer affiliate members now than when his predecessor left office.
Far less wealth in the Labour Party now than when his predecessor left office.
And it could go on.
Great leadership record Starmer.
