In the upcoming UK general election, will the parties that come together to form the next government - whether it be a single party with a majority or a coalition of parties - collectively receive more than 50% of the total popular vote?

Historical context shows that since 1945, only the government formed after the 2010 election achieved this feat. https://iamkate.com/data/minority-rule/

Question resolves N/A if no elections are held until end of 2025.
