Surge in support has Reform UK in pole position among West Midlands voters

Labour is projected to lose 223 seats, winning only 189, while Reform UK is set to gain 143 seats, with 121 at Labour's expense, according to polling by Electoral Calculus.
Professor Richard Rose noted that Labour's declines follow unpopular socialist measures enacted after taking power, leading parts of their voter base to shift to Reform UK.
Polling indicates Labour would lose 223 seats, leaving them with 189, while Reform UK is projected to gain 143 seats. This means Labour would haemorrhage 121 seats to Reform if an election were held today.
