    Would be a great time for a certain well known leftist who recently got kicked out of Labour to start his own party…

    Too bad the UK has no one like that I guess.

      The Liberal Party of the UK went from 43,2% in 1910 (272 seats) to 13,0% in the next election of 1918 (36 seats).

      The Panhellenic Socialist Movement (Socdems) in Greece had almost the same fall - 43,9% in 2009 to 13,8% in 2012. So much that the decline of socdem parties became known as PASOKification.

      The Polish Democratic Left Alliance, the successor of the PZPR, got into power with 41,0% of the vote (compared to the second placed PO with 12,7%) in 2001, but a mixture of neoliberal reforms and scandals made them fall to 11,31% in 2005, which also led to the rise of the far-right.
