Another poll predicts Tory wipeout - but will it actually happen? | LBC analysis

- The Conservatives are facing a worse election defeat than in 1997 at the next general election, as Labour prepare for a landslide victory that could give them more than 400 seats, the latest election poll has revealed.
YouGov's latest seat-by-seat poll will cause further headaches for Rishi Sunak, predicting even worse elections than an equivalent poll in January earlier this year.
Sir Keir Starmer's Labour will be handed a majority of 154 after winning 403 seats in the House of Commons, according to the poll.
The Conservatives, meanwhile, will have just 155 seats - losing 210 seats from the last general election in 2019 - according to the prediction which uses multi-level regression and poststratification (MRP) method of polling.
Several prominent Tory MPs are also predicted to have their own 'Portillo Moment' and could lose their seat.
Chancellor Jeremy Hunt, Leader of the House of Commons Penny Mordaunt, former Conservative leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith, and leading Brexiteer Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg would be on course to lose their seats.
According to the pollsters, Rishi Sunak is heading for a worse result than John Major's 1997 defeat, when the then-Tory leader won a total of 165 seats.
The poll for Starmer, however, could put him on course to win a victory on par with that of Tony Blair in his first term of office. In 1997. The party's longest-serving prime minister won 418 of the available 659 Commons seats.

150 seats are still way too much for Tories... I want them to fall below 100 seats.
@Dilan What odds did you get?
Zero seats best.
You would say that wouldn't you. . . .
How are they still polling above 150 seats? How can this country possibly have so many people who still want to vote Tory?
shareholders.
Because so many of the newspapers are owned by the Tories.
How anybody can vote Tory or Labour amazes me, but then again the sheep will follow each other
Because FPTP always favours the Tories, that’s why we’ve had a disproportionate number of Tory government over the past century, despite them only getting more than 50% of the vote twice! That’s why we need PR.
From the few people I've asked its "because Tony Blair is a war criminal"
The Tory's will be very lucky to get a hundred seats let alone 150.
Let's hope, keep them out of power forever
Amen x
And put them in prison.
Sunak isn't the main problem. It's the Tories themselves as a whole & what they've done to the country over the past 14 years. People are just sick of them & want stability. A new lick of paint isn't going to work again
@boogaloo So Labour's lick of paint is out of the question too..or do you just prefer red?😊
@@chatham43labour is going to make problems we already have worse, woke ineptitude is going to get this country absolutely destroyed. Plus diversity is not working and never has in Britain. 🇬🇧

My fkin comment has been removed again!!! 😩
May and Sunak inherited a disgusting poisoned chalice (at least those two seem honest and to have integrity). Time for change, time for a move to the left, centre ground.
The thing that astonishes me is that anyone sane could vote tory after looking at where we are after 14 years of having them in power.
We have almost 8 million people desperate and suffering on hospital waiting lists, sewage flooding rivers and coasts, roads and infrastructure falling apart, life expectancy is actually getting shorter for the first time in modern history, Victorian malnutrition diseases such as scurvy and rickets now making a comeback, many people actually forced to try pulling out their out teeth because they cant get an NHS dentist, hundreds dying on trolleys and floors in A+E depts every month just waiting to even get looked at, hundreds of billions of pounds stolen from the nation's coffers via PPE contracts and numerous other frauds- etc, etc etc. The list of crimes, negligence and deliberately evil acts goes on and on, and millions are suffering in all sorts of ways.
Who in their right mind could look at this national healthcare catastrophe and this enormous scale of suffering, compare that with how things were under the last Labour government (when for example, you got a GP appointment in less than 48 hours), and still think that the tories deserve another 5 years? Who in their right mind could think the NHS will ever work under the tories?
I've been finding it really hard to stay on speaking terms with tories and brexit voters, but if any of them vote tory this year, I think I'll really struggle to ever speak to them again.
It's probably mainly filthy rich people who are selfish who are voting tory now.
All that is true but Labour are carrying on with the same policies. It is not as if they are even promising to deal with any of that stuff. So all your energy is getting channeled into making the problems you describe worse.
If you can look at the last Labour government's record on the NHS and still say that Labour will make the NHS worse, I have to assume you are a right wing troll, and just pretending to be a left wing anti Starmerite.
I would warn other viewers and readers not to engage with this user account.
Typically these people will be paid based on engagements and responses, so I don't even really want to reply here- but I will reply once, just so that other people can be warned.
Folks, do NOT be fooled by these paid far-right trolls and bots who try to tell you that Sunak and Starmer are essentially the same, and that its not worth voting Labour.
That tactic is their last hope to spoil the Labour vote and salvage a few more seats.
Don't fall for their cheap lies. Think about the NHS you had under Blair and Brown, when it was one of the best in the world.
There is only one route back to that world, and it is the Labour Party.
If you comment, do NOT do that via a reply to the user account above- you will only be helping the far right trolls.
But some people are quite happy to sit and watch the country crumble, and more people die needlessly as long as its not them or their family, rather than have a government who will at least try to make a difference for the better.
I’m not a Tory or Brexit voter but Brexit is NOTHING to do with any of this and the problem with the Tories is that they’re now basically woke globalist Blairites in thrall to the WEF. The Uniparty of Davos is the problem and you’re its shill.
Tories will get less than 100 seats.
I'd dance in the Street IF that happened! AND I'v not long had two hips replaced! I 😄
Its as if he does not want to lose of course
Less than 100 tory seats could very well happen, if enough people turn to tactical voting. Out of those 150+ tory seats, nearly half have less than a 5% lead. With enough tactical voting, tories could have fewer seats than the lib-dems, and not even be the official opposition. In that scenario, a narrowing of the poll lead by labour over the tories would happen, because more votes would be switching from labour to lib-dem in tory marginals with currently second placed lib-dems.

I think the reform party will in time become more realistic as a possible government. But if everyone spreads their votes at the next general election between labour, reform, green...and whoever else...that's how tories are going to edge their way back in again. The realistic way to get the Tories out (although it already appears to be a forgone conclusion) is to vote Labour.
Why do these people keep insisting that Sunak is a 'decent' person? Maybe I'm being harsh but I tend to judge folk on their words and deeds...
He lies in the HoC and deosn't correct his lies even he's when told to because, e.g., the figures he stated have been wrong. That is not the act of a 'decent' person.

Well earned if you ask me!
The thing is; for most people the Tories are no longer being judged on what they currently say or promise! That doesn’t matter anymore as we are too far beyond that. They are now (quite rightly) being judged on their record and their actions, both of which which is the most abysmal performance in most people’s living memory - and nothing they can say or do will change that fact. Quite honestly many of them are very lucky they are not facing jail time.
Hey now, it's not just their awful record that they are being judged on. It's not just the lies and the incompetence or the corruption. It's also the deeply flawed (and nasty) ideologies they cling to.
Yes, quite simply, the voters are NOT listening to the politicians any more.... Serve them right... Decades of unsuitable people, running our Country... Why can't these failure MP's be held accountable for their actions ?
Changing the leader can work , I’m assuming they have a time 🕰️ machine and can change the last 14 years of Tory rule and make it competent and effective
So the Tories aren’t in it for the country, they are in it for themselves now?! Shocking… not…. This is why we won’t vote for them.
And the MRP method used doesn't even take account of tactical voting.
With a bit of luck they're done forever and Ed Davey will be leader of the opposition.

Sunak is running scared, spread the word
It's this simple. The Tories alienated the electorate who voted Conservative expecting:
1. Lower taxes
2. A better country post-brexit
3. Leveling-up
Of course 2 & 3 were never going to happen anyway but once they failed to deliver on any of these they lost half of their voters!
Brexit was what got them into power. Promising a better post Brexit life. But it was a fallacy. It was lies. It was Johnson at his lying baffoon best. And 52% believed it. Now us 48% despair.
Interestingly, 401 isn't as many seats as Labour won in 1997, which kind of gives some credence to the theory that it's an anti-tory vote.
Can't believe they think that Davies will keep his seat what kind of people would vote for a man who has rented out his own flat in London and rented another flat in London so he can claim expenses for it as he is not allowed to claim mortgage payments on expenses, I know it's not illegal but it is disgusting hope he tells his constituents and thanks them for paying for his London flat.

Electoral Calculus has updated their numbers. They have Labour winning 459 seats and the Tories winning only 90.
I like their poll better.
If the public in marginals really take tactical voting seriously, they can get the Tories down to less than 50 seats possibly making the Lib Dems the official opposition.
People don’t like to be led by people they perceive as incompetent, self-serving liars. At this point, party policies are irrelevant; whether it’s a Labour switch, abstention or protest party, the vast majority are voting with their heart, and can simply no longer bear their country being run by these despicable people, regardless of their personal politics.
With very mediocre tactical voting by Labour and Lib Dem supporters in the new marginal seats the Tories would lose another 50+ seats. Just 1 in 4 voting tactically in the new marginals would wipe the Tories out.
There is the very real prospect of a defeat worse than in tge disasters of 1906, 1997 and 2001.
Afraid Sunak is detested by the

It's more incredible that the Tories are forecast to get 155 seats, who's still voting for them?
Bear in mind, something like30% of UK adults have the reading age of an 11 year old. 😂
Can we drain our swamp now?
from what? foreigners? you're delusional mate
Never before in my 28 years of voting have I needed a none of the above option on the form more than now.
Absolutely... I've been putting comments on various YT channels for ages, about this... I think they are afraid to put a ' NOTA ' option on the Ballot paper, as that would probably win about 500 seats !
The longer Sunak leaves it the worse the self fulfilling prophecy becomes, so 155 today becomes 70 by November
The last possible Thursday, that the GE can be held is Thursday 24th January 2025.... So maybe the 70 becomes 50...?
This fella Tom Smallprick is always quick to tell us that he is not Jewish. Who is he kidding? Be proud of your heritage man.
This sounds to me like, “we still need an opposition. Don’t let Labour get too big a majority” type poll
If I were a Conservative, I'd be jumping for joy at the idea that retaining 155 seats might be possible... The question now is not who will win the GE but whether or not whichever party comes second will have enough MPs to form a functioning opposition that can hold the new government to account. I suspect not, as I don't see any of them getting into triple figures in MPs.
Sunak just wants time to get his memorandum of understanding on the India deal, he'd push it to January if the party lets him.
Won’t vote Tory, labour or sNp!
Snp for me!
Let me guess, Reform Ltd for a nice dollop of Fascism.

Since the Scottish Green Party is next largest, why assume Reform?
We need a third party. No more tories, no more labour
Three self elected leaders is just for starters.
I also think Reform may even get seats in some places where town centres are literally places where women feel afraid of going into unaccompanied.
Tom Smalldick is clearly worried. Strange fella to be talking on LBC. Mind you; they had Farage and still have Ferrari..
Says a 5 year name caller.
So why arent they changing course? They seem to be doubling down on the policies and behaviour which got them in this problem. Not complaining; i hope theyre finished, i just down understand the strategy here
Still too many seats
