The Conservative Party is facing a historic electoral meltdown as the Tories stand on the brink of a catastrophic election defeat, according to a massive new Ipsos poll. Surveying nearly 20,000 voters, Ipsos predicts Labour will storm to 453 seats.
Meanwhile, the Conservatives are forecast to crash to just 115 seats, handing Sir Keir Starmer’s party an astonishing 256-seat majority in Parliament.
The poll paints a grim picture for senior Tory figures. Grant Shapps, Penny Mordaunt, Gillian Keegan, Johnny Mercer, and Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg could all lose their seats in this election. Chancellor Jeremy Hunt is locked in a tight battle to hold Godalming and Ash in Surrey.
Cabinet ministers James Cleverly and Kemi Badenoch are also clinging on by the skin of their teeth as the election approaches.
In a dramatic twist, Nigel Farage is forecast to snatch Clacton from the Conservatives, overturning their solid majority there. This would mark Farage’s first ever return to Parliament, shaking up the political landscape and adding fresh spice to the election race.
Labour’s stronghold looks set to hold firm, with ex-Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, standing as an independent, expected to lose Islington North to Labour’s new candidate.
The Liberal Democrats are set to win 38 seats, the Scottish National Party 15, the Greens three, and Reform UK three. These figures echo a recent Survation poll that also predicts a huge Labour majority.
As the election looms, this Ipsos data signals a seismic political shift with the Conservatives facing their worst wipeout ever. Labour looks poised for a decisive triumph, while Farage’s potential comeback adds an eyebrow-raising twist to a fast-moving election battle.
