Non-white voters make up 30% of the electorate in the US.
Non-white voters only make up 10% of the electorate in the UK.
Republicans win the white vote 60%/40%, yet still cant win the election.
Conservatives in the UK win the white vote by any decent margin and they've won the election.
Democrats don't have to worry about the white working class vote any longer and appeal to their instincts, they did in the 80s but they don't now. Labour in the UK unfortunately still have to and can't rely on the ethnic minority population to pad up their vote, although they can in multicultural London (only 45% white British), which is why unsurprisingly the Tories do absolutely sh1te there.
It’s more than 10%. Plus, many nonwhite voters there identify as white British given their choices. A biracial person most often identifies as white British.
On some forms you have a choice:
White British
White Other
Black African
Black Asian
Chinese

Besides race us nowhere near as big an issue in the UK as it is in the US, historically in the UK 'class' tended to be the driving factor but in modern Britain that has been turned on its head.
Labour lost Hartlepool, which is the equivalent of the Democrats in the US losing somewhere like a part of Detroit or Baltimore to the Republicans.
It's the first time in Hartlepool's history that Labour has lost the seat.
Well when democrats did lose Michigan in 2016 (unthinkable)....they responded by cheating in 2020.
Hats off to our cousins across the pond for their continued efforts to take their country back. Maybe the UK will be one of the worlds few free countries as it appears we Muricans are headed for socialism and ruin. Soon we will be the new Venezuela.

Class is also a driving factor here in the US, but we never talk about it. Much of the current issue of race is actually a class issue. There are many commonalities between the problems and issues involving the black urban underclass and the white rural/small town working class. The ruling class loves to divide us by race, hoping we don’t notice that much of the underlying problem of both groups is rooted in the lack of economic opportunity and advancement.
