"The Sunday Telegraph published a study by the Savanta sociological institute, according to which Labor gets 46%, and the Tories (Conservatives) - 21%. According to polls by the Sunday Times (Survation) and the Observer (Opinium), the current British opposition is likely to get 40%.

Due to the majority election system in the UK, the Conservatives face a significant defeat in the actual distribution of seats. According to the Survation Institute, the current ruling party could win 72 out of 650 seats in the House of Commons. If so, this will be the lowest figure in its almost 200-year history.
