    In the parliament, yes. But there is no such concept in a seat. There majority can only be the dictionary def. As 50% makes no difference to the seats’ winner under fptp. Only who has the most votes.

    And the dictionary def has no relation to 50%. Because it is an English term, not as political one. Heck, even in parliament, it’s a more media term to help explain who has the ability to control votes.
