Conservatives Face Historic Defeat in July UK General Election
News summary

The Conservative Party is poised for a historic defeat in the upcoming July general election, potentially securing only 53 seats out of 650, according to multiple polls. This would mark the lowest seat count for the Tories in their nearly 200-year history, with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak at risk of losing his Richmond and Northallerton seat, a first for a sitting PM. Key cabinet members like Jeremy Hunt and Penny Mordaunt are also projected to lose their seats. The Labour Party, led by Sir Keir Starmer, is expected to win more than 400 seats, surpassing their 1997 record. The Liberal Democrats are predicted to achieve their best results in years, securing between 49 and 67 seats. Tactical voting is anticipated to play a significant role, with many voters aiming to unseat the Conservatives.
