This is a new forecast format where we will present just the centre point of the range of possibilities. We will attempt to update this forecast every day until the 7th of May.

Forecast

  • After a few days of movement towards Labour we now see evidence of a return to the Conservatives
  • We see evidence that the move away from the SNP has bottomed out.
  • We believe that UKIP will win three seats (up from two yesterday). We believe the two will be Clacton, Thurrock and a third that is either Rochester or South Thanet.
