Reform would be the main winner but no party would win outright, with Angela Rayner, Yvette Cooper, Ed Miliband and Wes Streeting losing their seats.
All three of these party leaders could be duking it out if an election were held today Almost half a year after the General Election, Labour’s honeymood period hasn’t lasted long. A new mega poll predicts they would face a wipeout in seats they recently gained if the poll were rerun today, despite securing a landslide on July 4. The party would be predicted to lose some 200 seats, falling short of a majority, which would result in a hung parliament.
Tory leader Kemi Badenoch will not be celebrating either, as the main winner is Nigel Farage and his party Reform, which has been backed by billionaire Elon Musk. Reform would win 72 seats, it predicted, compared to the five it holds today. In 2024’s election, the renamed Brexit Party won 14.3% of the vote share, but the implied vote share would increase to 21%, snapping at the heels of Labour and the Tories which were put at 25% and 26% respectively.
