Majoc the Filk: Point of order: 43% was the percentage of those who voted Tory in the 1983 election,

I was quoting the results from the latest, 2019, General Election.
If you would like clarification the details are in House of Commons Library

Where it states:
The 2019 General Election resulted in a Conservative victory. The party won 365 seats, 48 more than in 2017, and 43.6% of the vote, up from 42.3% in 2017. The Labour Party won 202 seats and 32.1% of the vote, down from 262 seats and 40.0% of the vote in 2017. The Liberal Democrats won 11 seats, one fewer than in 2017, and 11.5% of the vote, up from 7.4%.
