It was one of the biggest wins in the centre-left Labour’s history, as opposed to monumental losses for the Conservatives who have been in power for 14 years.

As time to convince the undecided runs out, senior Tory figures have conceded a likely defeat but asked voters to cast their ballots tactically in a bid to limit the margin of Labour’s win.
