Labour lose 11/14 seats in Dudley. Some horrifying results for them in the West Midlands.
Pretty much all the places Labour is losing in are places they lost in last general election so more re-enforces what happened in 2019 was no fluke but part of a larger trend. I think Labour long term needs to figure out a way to do better in the suburban areas to offset this, but admittedly won't be easy. Also party has a really bad brand image and that is going to be tough to rehabilitate. While on opposite ends of spectrum, UK Labour and Canadian Tories have a lot in common as both perpetual losers, cannot figure out what they stand for, and keep on drifting further and further away from mainstream voters.
