Exit poll of over 4K users sees Keir Starmer's party predicted for 49%

A Mumsnet exit poll with more than 4,500 users sees Sir Keir Starmer 's Labour party predicted 49 per cent of the votes while Ed Davey 's crew come in second with 17 per cent. The interactive poll, posted on the blogging forum at 7.22am, has attracted a host of responses and almost 400 comments.

The results show a strong support for Labour, with the Lib Dems coming in second place and the Conservative party not far behind with 13 per cent of the vote. Reform and Green are tied on seven per cent and any independent candidates, SNP , PC or other parties have a total of eight per cent of the vote altogether.

Ipsos's final election poll yesterday suggested that Labour would have a 37 per cent chare of the vote, down 5 per cent from last week while Reform were predicted a whopping 15 per cent of the vote.

The Mumsnet predictions come just half an hour before the final exit poll is set to be published and could give an indicator of what's in store for the political parties tonight.

Users flooded to the comment section of the poll to say who they'd voted for and what their prediction were.

Some admitted they'd voted tactically while others said they'd changed their mind several times on the run up to the polls.

A poll earlier today suggested Labour's predicted majority dropping slightly to 270 seats as the general election entered its final hours.

An updated 'MRP' projection by Survation showed Sir Keir Starmer's party winning 470 seats, with the Tories reduced to 68 MPs in the House of Commons, just slightly ahead of the Liberal Democrats on 59.

Queues of people were seen at polling stations today as the requirement for voters to bring correct photo identification for a general election - such as a passport or driving licence - are being enforced for the first time.
