THE Conservative party face the prospect of large-scale losses in key battlegrounds across the UK if there was a general election tomorrow, according to the latest YouGov MRP model.

However, the figures on the Electoral Calculus indicate that it is unlikely that Slough, Windsor and Maidenhead will see any major changes.

Slough has seen a labour MP in office since 1997, with current MP Tan Dhesi having first been elected in 2017.

In 2019 Labour achieved 57.6 per cent of the votes in Slough. This is looking likely to increase in the next election, with 65.4 per cent of votes predicted to go to Labour.

The Electoral Calculus have stated Labour has a 100 per cent chance of winning in Slough.

Tan Dhesi said: "While predictions are encouraging, and people are indeed fed up of this Conservative Government and want change, we cannot become complacent and must continue setting out Labour’s long-term plan for the country, our message of hope, how we will get rid of the record high NHS waiting lists, tackle the cost of living crisis and deliver economic growth."

He added that he is "very grateful" for residents continued support and he remained committed to "tirelessly serving" the community, "tackling pressing issues and delivering positive change".

"We never take this trust for granted and approach every election with a commitment to hard work and helping those most in need."

The political picture in Windsor and Maidenhead is the polar opposite of Slough, with Windsor both towns having had a long history of Conservative MPs.

Former MP Theresa May has held the Maidenhead seat since 1997.

While the Conservative party are still predicted to take the lead with 35.6 per cent of the votes, the chance of the party holding on to their seat currently stands at 68 per cent.

Labour has a 26 per cent chance of winning Maidenhead and Liberal Democrats 6 per cent.

In Windsor the odds are narrower, with the Conservative Party and Labour Party predicted to face off in a bid to win the seat.

Electoral Calculus predicted Conservatives would get 34.9 per cent of the votes, while Labour could receive 32.8 per cent of the votes. The close margin between the two sees Conservatives having a 55 per cent chance of winning and Labour a 44 per cent chance.

Jack Rankin has set his sites on being the new Windsor Conservative MP. On the predictions, he said: "While the polls are encouraging for us in Windsor we are taking nothing for granted. At the local elections, people told my party we needed to listen and we see that reflected in the national polls as well.

"That's why I'm working hard to knock on as many doors as humanly possible, in every town and village in the constituency, to listen and ensure we are fighting for every single vote. Local people tell me they want a local and vocal champion, available and accessible right across the constituency, and that's what I'm fighting for, and what I will do if I am elected."

The 2024 election will also see some changes to boundaries with Slough losing Colnbrook and Poyle and Langley wards Foxborough, Marish and St Mary's - all of which are to join Windsor's constituency.

Virginia Water, along with Englefield Green East and West are also set to join Windsor.

Meanwhile, Maidenhead's constituency is also expected to expand with Binfield North and Warfield West, Binfield South and Jennett's Park, Swinley Forest, Whitegrove and Winkfield and Warfield East.
