Labour is poised for a historic victory in the upcoming UK general election, with multiple polls predicting a landslide win. The final YouGov MRP poll forecasts Labour securing 431 seats, resulting in a 212-seat majority, the largest since 1832. Other polls, including those from Survation, Focaldata, and Savanta, also project significant Labour majorities, with estimates ranging from 210 to 238 seats. The Conservative Party is expected to suffer a severe defeat, potentially securing as few as 102 seats. Reform UK is projected to gain a small number of seats, while the Liberal Democrats and Scottish National Party are also expected to make gains. Conservative minister Mel Stride has conceded that Labour is likely to achieve an unprecedented landslide victory, emphasizing the need for a strong opposition.
