17/17. They’ll quickly gain an understanding of how Westminster works and further develop the skills and knowledge they need. The support on offer from the parliamentary staff is reportedly better than it’s ever been. The new House of Commons of 2024 will do just fine.

16/17. A record number of women MPs (40.5%). A record 90 ethnic minority MPs (13.8%). According to @PinkNews, 9.8% of MPs in the Commons are out LGBTQ+, with the 12.2% of Labour MPs representing “by far the largest party cohort of any parliament in the world".

The new House of Commons may be the most inexperienced since 1945, but that’s not the full picture. A thread (1/17). The turnover at #GE2024 was clearly dramatic. 20% of MPs stood down and 33% of sitting MPs were defeated.

Astonishingly, 52% of the House of Commons are newly elected - at least 340 new MPs (with 13 retreads) with five seats still to declare. Comfortably beats the 324 new MPs in 1945. Going to be a hugely inexperienced Commons @tomorrowsmps #GE2024
