If Keir Starmer and Labour run a spot on campaign without silly mistakes. They should win between 375 to 400 seats. If they have some slip ups, that number would likely drop. As for the Tories, the chances of them winning Government (Majority or Minority) is probably 1%. And I think Keir Starmer's message of "Change" after 14 years of Tory rule will resonate with the British Public.

The country flip flops between Tory and Labour after every 3-4 general elections and has done with clockwork precision since the 1950s (aside from one blip in 1970). The conservatives have been in for the last 4 general elections - so i'd say a Labour win was pretty much inevitable this time round no matter what the track record of either party has been.
