Labour is on course to form a majority government with 410 seats, the exit poll has projected.
Sir Keir Starmer is set to enter No10 as Prime Minister, according to the Ipsos UK survey for Sky News/BBC/ITV News, which forecast a landslide win for his party – and a majority of 170 seats.
It comes after a torrid election campaign for Rishi Sunak’s Conservatives, with the party expected to win just 131 seats, compared to 365 in the 2019 general election.
Senior cabinet ministers and big-name Tory MPs including Chancellor Jeremy Hunt, former party leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith, Defence Secretary Grant Shapps, and veterans minister Johnny Mercer could all be at risk of losing their seats – while other big names, such as Penny Mordaunt, Gillian Keegan, and Mark Harper and described as ‘too close to call’, by the analysis.
