politicalbetting.com » Blog Archive » Tonight the results from what looks like the final major electoral test before Brexit

Although large parts of the UK do not have elections today this, unless something exceptional happens, will be the last big electoral test before Britain is due to leave the EU on March 29th next year.

No live spreadsheet tonight, unfortunately. Mainly because I didn't have time to prepare, but also because I don't think I'm mad enough to do it for 150 councils

Pulpstar · May 2018

I've ~ zeroed out of Barnet. Wandsworth/Westminster bet looking good:

nunuone · May 2018

Labour activists in my Ealing ward have been out in force.....tories not at all. Polish Pride handing out balloons to children.
I expect a very, very good night for Labour in London.

Prediction in London:
Labour +50

Tories -50

Labour to gain Kensington and Chelsea and Barnet from Tories and Tower Hamlets from NOC.

Overall (including London):

Tories down -Unchanged more or less

Labour + 75

UKIP- utter collapse

Lib Dem- LOL

AndyJS · May 2018

Barnet was already too close to call before the election even started. Suggests not much has changed there.

+50.-50 is not a great night.

I don't expect K&C to fall but I think the Tories could be down 90 and Labour up more than 100

I had started early and got about 25 councils put in towards the end of last year, but haven't found time recently I'm afraid. Heh, next year there are 270 councils up for grabs.

I know, but it won't be a UNS swing in London. There has been massive demographic change there (to the detriment of Tories) in recent years, unbelievable almost.

Agreed. Childs Hill and Hale are Labour’s best chance but Sadiq Khan was campaigning in High Barnet earlier so they must think they are in with a shout there too.

I reckon 2019's elections will be pivotal.

First ones post Brexit and could see Theresa ousted if they are bad ones.

Assuming the ERG don't oust her for keeping us in the customs union.

Con - 50
UKIP -150
I think UKIP are defending 132 seats
I thought that last time they got 175, but are defending less because of defections By-elections and so on. I was comparing the losses and gains from last election, but I fully admit I have not checked.

Yes, I stand corrected. They can notionally lose 150.

They are almost certain to be bad. There are 10,000 or so, and were last contested in 2015, on the same day as the general election. The Tories could easily lose 1,000 seats.

I'm fairly confident that Richmond is a LibDem gain. Kingston will be a Libdem gain and Sutton a LibDem hold. The swings could be surprising. No betting opportunity on Betfair.

A great night for the Suspenders Party. They still have appeal after all these years.
Keeping the side up
I suspect this meme’s got legs
And runs
You can do better than that.
Pull your socks up.
Belt up
These puns aren't all that they seam.....
They'll improve once we've taken back control of our fishnets.

I’ll have your guts for garters!

I think Barnet is expectations management, quite honestly if they're out in High Barnet then Hale and Child's Hill are gone - unless there is some weird non uniform Barnet swing going on.
OTOH Wandsworth is tougher.

I'm not slogging through QT to wait for election night. Blue Barnet pls for my bet... Hope to wake to that but not expecting to.

Survation have a poll showing Labour leading 50/37 in Croydon, a swing of 5% since 2014.

Is that in line with recent London polling? A 5% swing?

"Party sources say they are expecting to make significant gains but to fall short of the incredibly high expectations set for Labour during the campaign."

Own should have tried harder!!
