These seats are very much the “low hanging fruit” for the Conservatives. While there are some seats on this list that enjoyed substantial majorities in 2005, many are ultra marginals. In Kent alone there were 5 seats with majorities under 1,000. Were Gordon Brown to retain an overall majority at the next election he would need to be retaining seats like these. In the present political situation they will fall easily to David Cameron’s Conservatives on one of the larger swings to the Conservatives.

Seat-by-seat prediction

12.1% swing to the Conservatives
