UK-Elect General Election Forecast, June 11th 2019.

Labour Gain 23 Seats, 55 short of Overall Majority.

In this UK-Elect General Election forecast, which uses an updated method that fine-tunes support for the parties based on the level of support for Brexit in each constituency, the Labour Party are projected to win 270 seats (+23 from current situation) leaving them 55 seats short of a majority, 38 ahead of the Conservative's 232 seats (-81), with the Scottish National Party on 53 seats (+18), the Liberal Democrats 52 (+41), the Brexit Party on 18 (+18), the Democratic Unionist Party 10, Sinn Fein 7, Plaid Cymru 4, Green 1 and Others 3.

The UK-Elect v11.3 method was used for the forecast, using overall GB-wide percentages. Candidate-specific settings were not utilised, but the automatic addition of Brexit Party and Change UK candidates was enabled. The current recommended default settings were used.

The percentages used were: Lab 26%, Con 23%, Brexit Party 20%, LD 17%, Green 5.5%, UKIP 1.5%, Change UK 1.5%, SNP 3.6%. These percentages are based on an approximate average of the latest polls.

One factor of interest is that current opinion polls are currently very fluid, with values for the key parties varying by more than 5% from poll to poll. This could make an enormous difference - for example, with 25% of the vote the Brexit Party could easily gain well over 160 seats (most of them at the expense of the Conservatives), and start to gain more seats very rapidly with even small further increases, depending on the percentage distribution between the other parties.
