After a week and a half of campaigning, the polls have changed, and the Conservatives are no longer facing a big loss on July 4. Instead, they are now facing a catastrophe, a complete wipeout.
The findings have suggested a potential Canada-style collapse for the party based on when the Canadian Conservative Party went into the 1993 election as the government and only managed to hold on to two seats.
Electoral Calculus predicts they would win a mere 24 seats if the poll was replicated in an election. Even Rishi Sunak would lose his North Yorkshire seat to Labour in this scenario.
The worst election in the Tories' 346-year history was in 1906 when they won 156 seats and Arthur Balfour became the only major party leader to lose his seat.
