For the brave few who are still planning to vote Tory in the next election, look away now. According to the latest YouGov MRP, Labour looks set for a historic majority in the upcoming election, winning a stonking 403 seats (compared to a woeful 155 for the Conservatives).
The election outcome would mean the hallowed Labour red wall would be snatched back from the Tories, who took near-complete control of the traditional northern Labour seats in 2019.

Labour: 403 (+201 since GE2019)
Conservatives: 155 (-210)
Lib Dems: 49 (+38)
SNP: 19 (-29)
Plaid: 4 (=)
Greens: 1 (=)
Reform UK: 0 (=) pic.twitter.com/HCF2JbyxXz— Freddie Sayers (@freddiesayers) April 3, 2024
What, then, for Britain’s other parties? YouGov forecasts a very strong election for the Lib Dems, who would more than quadruple their current seats to 49. But Reform — despite its surge in the polls — would actually lose its only seat in the election, going home empty-handed. What will Lee Anderson do now?
