After adding in this weekend's polls our Nowcast shows a Labour majority for the very first time. 🌹 Lab — 329 🌳 Con — 126 🔶 LD — 68 ➡️ Ref — 48 🎗️ SNP — 46 🌼 PC — 8 ☘️ SF — 6 🦁 DUP — 4 🌱 GP — 4 ⚪ Others — 11 devolvedelections.co.uk/westminster/

A total of 14 parties would win at least 1 seat, + 2 independents and the Speaker.

Plaid are on course for gains in Wales. Meanwhile 6 parties and an independent are projected to win at least one seat in Northern Ireland out of 18 as fragmentation of the party system continues across the UK.

There are a lot of tight races across both Scotland and England, with Labour leading most of marginals in England but trailing marginals North of the border. Very few seats are on course to be won with genuine majority support. FPTP can't handle this.
