The latest polls indicate a significant shift in the UK's political landscape ahead of the general election on July 4. According to multiple sources, including Ipsos MRP, YouGov, and Savanta, the Labour Party, led by Keir Starmer, is poised for a historic victory, potentially securing between 425 and 516 seats, with projections suggesting a majority ranging from 162 to 382 seats. The Conservative Party, under Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, faces a devastating defeat, with forecasts predicting they could win as few as 53 to 155 seats. Notably, Sunak himself is at risk of losing his seat, a historic first for a sitting Prime Minister. The Reform Party, led by Nigel Farage, is also making significant gains, with some polls suggesting they could win up to 5 seats. The Liberal Democrats and the Scottish National Party (SNP) are also projected to make gains, with the Liberal Democrats potentially winning up to 67 seats and the SNP up to 20 seats. The Green Party is expected to secure 2 to 3 seats. These projections, reported by Sky News and the Telegraph, indicate a dramatic realignment in UK politics, with the Conservatives potentially facing their worst result in nearly 200 years.
