Apologies if this has already been mentioned elsewhere, but I’ve had an email from Anthony Wells to say UK Polling Report is now active again. But Anthony himself has stepped down and Callum Jones is the new editor.

Excellent news! I was wondering what had happened to it. Thanks for the heads up.

It's been active for a few weeks but very different. No mention of Anthony Wells. I wonder if the email was to answer the many questions

The seat predictions that they have on the site now are ... interesting. There seem to be a few, including my own Edinburgh South where the Conservatives are getting 0%...

The Lib Dems winning Tiverton and Honiton 50-19 for instance… Is it any more mad than Electoral Calculus showing Con 38% Lab 35% LD 13% for the same seat? Like they say, predictions are a fools game, especially about the future. |

Like they say, predictions are a fools game, especially about the future. One thing that we can be reasonably confident about that constituency is that it is going to be broken up. But if somehow there is a General Election before the boundary changes come in and polling is much as it is now, I'd favour the Lib Dems to hold all three by-election gains. |

Looks like the old site may have gone offline, a real shame if so.

I’m sure I posted about the revival of the site over a month ago. It is the “same site”, and all the posts by Anthony Wells back to the year dot are preserved on it.

Good to see a seat by seat guide (hopefully will get updated with new boundaries), the navigation is poor of that section though.
