If 'Did Not Vote' counted as a political party it would have won 11 out of west London's 19 seats last week.

According to turnout figures from the 2015 General Election, the number of people who did not vote outweighed the number of people voting for the winning party in all but eight constituencies.

Labour would only hold on to three seats - Ealing North with a turnout of 65.7%, Ealing Southall with a 66.1% turnout and Ealing Central & Acton with 71.4% of constituents voting.

The Conservatives would hold on to five - Chelsea & Fulham; Harrow East; Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner; Wimbledon and Twickenham.

Turnout was lowest in Kensington, where 43.2% of those on the electoral register did not vote.

The 'Did Not Vote' party would have also succeeded in Brent Central; Brent North; Brentford & Isleworth; Cities of London & Westminster; Feltham & Heston; Hammersmith; Harrow West; Hayes & Harlington; Uxbridge & South Ruislip; and Westminster North.

Overall, however, turnout at this year's General Election stood at 66.1% - the highest it has been since 1997.

Constituencies in which Conservatives emerged victorious tended to have a far higher turnout than those in which Labour candidates triumphed, with average turnouts of 68.5% and 61.7% respectively.

Turnout in constituencies won by the SNP was far higher than both of these, with a turnout of 71%.

Nationally, the 'Did Not Vote' party would have won a comfortable majority of 343 seats compared to 210 for the Conservatives and 50 for the SNP. Labour would become Britain's third party with only 42 seats.
