Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/H8kpMXmS0KA In this video, British entrepreneur Aaron Henriques discusses his scepticism about the recent UK election results, which saw Keir Starmer's Labour party win by a huge majority over the Conservative party, defeating former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak after 14 years of Tory rule. He questions the fairness of the constituency system, pointing out how votes are not equal across different regions of the UK, resulting to few seats for Nigel Farage and his part Reform UK. Using examples like the Isle of Wight, Na h-Eileanan an Iar (in Scotland) and Islington North, he highlights the discrepancies in representation and argues for a more balanced approach to voting.
